Mom: We should take you to a dentist sometime.
Me: Why? Is something wrong with my teeth?
Mom: Mmm there is nothing wrong with your teeth but it does
not hurt to get an opinion about things from a professional.
Me: Uh? Opinion about what?
Mom: Your teeth of course. I think we can make it look
better than what it is now.
Me: Oh you mean get a cleaning? I could use that. I hear women
these days are attracted to weird things like manicured nails and straightened hair.
Whitening my teeth seems a lot more logical that all that.
Mom: Well I was thinking more in the lines of braces da.
Me: What? Why do I need braces? Is my teeth misaligned or
something?
Mom: I think your teeth are a bit crooked.
(I run to bathroom to
look into the mirror.)
Me: Oh my god. Mom why did you not tell me this before? I
thought normal human beings had teeth like mine. :O
Mom: It is nothing to worry about. We can get it fixed in a
few months.
Me: Will wearing braces be painful.
Mom: You don’t have to worry. It will be a little
uncomfortable at first but you will get used to it. Also these days they have
these internal braces you can wear.
Me: Okay. I want to get this done as soon as possible.
Mom: You can also get your teeth whitened when you are
there. The Dentist is my patient so you will get quality treatment.
Me: Hmmm okay.
I go to the dentist.
Lie down and get my teeth cleaned and whitened.
Dentist: Your mother tells me that your teeth are crooked
and you might need braces to fix it.
Me: Yeah she told me that too. Is it very bad?
Dentist: Exactly the teeth in which jaw does she find
crooked?
Me: What? You are asking me?
Dentist: Well I am not sure which tooth she finds crooked.
Me: Why don’t we call her up then?
I call.
Mom: Hello. What
happened?
Me: Amma. Which tooth do you have a problem with?
Mom: What? Give the
phone to the dentist.
Me: Okay
My mom and the dentist
have a small talk and the dentist hands the phone back to me.
Dentist: Open your mouth.
Me: Aaahhhhhh.
Me: Can we fix it? Is it very bad?
Dentist: Tell me. What course are you doing right now?
Me: huh? I am doing engineering?
Dentist: You plan to make a career as a model or movie star?
Me: What? No.
Dentist: Then nobody is going to notice this one crooked tooth
of yours. Have a good day.
When in doubt about how I look, I ask the opinion of the lady who noticed
the crooked tooth that even the dentist could not find after examining my mouth.
Most of the time she thinks I look great. Nothing can be more reassuring.
