I mean tooth cleaning. I tell you, folks, all the protective measures are for the benefit of the hygienist, not for the patient:
1. Th hygienist (right...) liberally touches rubber gloves before putting them on unwashed hands.
2. The lamp's handles, which are covered with plastic wrap, do not get freshly wrapped after each patient, although the hygienist touches the plastic covered handles, then goes back to the patient's, I mean customer's, mouth. So now you got all other patient's germs in your mouth.
3. The final tooth polishing paste is scraped as needed from a little plastic dispenser directly with the polishing tool.
The conclusion: I may as well have licked the door handle and floor mat liberally for 10 minutes on the way in.
PS: I saw a spray bottle, labeled CaviCide. I wonder if the complimentary product CaviGift was hidden somewhere.
PP: What's the difference between a dentist and a sadist? Newer magazines. (Seinfeld joke)
