The heavy - handed manly woman who was my dentist has left and now I ' m in the hands of a very pleasant 26 year - old boy who has a much gentler touch . I ' m not sure what he must make of me though . After having half my face numbed he invited me to " please rinse " . I followed his instructions and then spat all the mouthwash over the floor - I had no control over my mouth at all .
What was the reason I made such a mess ?
- I had no control over my hands .
 - The boy who had a much gentler touch rinsed my lips .
 - None of the above choices .
 - My mouth was numb so I missed the bowl when rinsing .
