D(M)ental Torture




One of the scariest things in the life, in my opinion, is to visit a dental clinic. Most of my readers and dentists would agree that it's not an overstatement to say that dentists happen to be the scariest bunch of doctors whom everybody would like to avoid.
So… when patients visit their clinics, what should dentists do to comfort them?
I would say that they should do anything but display these pictures on the walls of the reception….
Few days back, I happened to accompany one of my friends to a dental clinic.
These are the few of the pictures which that Doc fellow had displayed on the walls. Those were the pictures with no captions and I really did not understand the purpose behind their display.
My reaction went through a series of metamorphosis….
Already horrified…..
Horrified to the core on seeing these photographs……
Wondered why the heck he had displayed these photographs….
Probably he is trying to prove he is one helluva doc who can perform complex surgeries…..
Was thrown in a fit of laugher when I saw face of my friend turning white on seeing these photographs….
Clicked pictures of these photographs….
Thought of sharing them with bloggers…
The million dollar question still remains unanswered…..Why would any dentist put these pics on the walls of his clinic?
Any clue?
