Mental Over Dental Poem by Eric Niehoff

Anxiety
Sitting in the chair
Hope they work with care
Anything to numb the pain
Fear driving insane

Numbness
Novocain takes effect
From my fear it will protect
Now with relaxation
I feel no sensation

Comfort
They treat me so nice
Definitely worth the price
Excited to help my smile
Although it may take awhile

Impatient
Hours have gone by
I let out a big sigh
Will it ever end?
My mouth needs to mend

Relief
The dentist now complete
Amazed at their feat
Plans to finish are made
My insecurities start to fade.
