Any shots in my mouth hurt! Actually, even the x-rays hurt me. They never fit my mouth and cut into my gums. Teeth cleanings can be painful with a little slip or a rough hand. Some people are more sensitve than others.

I think the present is a nice idea as long as it's not tied to a specific behavior. Just sitting in a chair long enough for the precedure is a feat, not to mention pain, etc.

This is how I feel, too. Heck, I feel like I deserve a present after going to the dentist!
