AT THE DENTIST'S 







I went to a state-of-the-art dental facility. It was awesome! Our grandparents have been going to see Dr. Venugopalan Nair since they moved back to India. Their clinic is located conveniently right near the most famous medical university in Trivandrum city.  The doctor was smiling at us the entire time.  Even though I was waiting for hours, I never even felt bored. They have a flat screen TV, a huge bookcase, and a nice place to play. The doctors are very kind. My check up and cleaning didn’t hurt one bit. They helped even my sister who has been crying about her front tooth. It had been loose for nearly 6 months and it was swaying with the breeze in her mouth. She never let anyone get close to it. The pedodontist, Dr. Subhalakshmi, sang a song to her, gave her a magic medicine for her mouth, and pulled it out in the split of a second. It was a miracle! So, if you have difficult siblings, make sure you take them to this centre.
If you need your teeth cleaned by really nice doctors who are kind and gentle, this is the place for you. Or, just go in and say Sarvesh Subramanian, Mr. Gopi Pillai’s grandson recommended you. You will get a very nice tour. Or visit their website. Try checking it the first chance you get! I will put the site hyperlink on the post.
As I told you, we entertained ourselves with books from their fancy book case. We donated our favorite William Steig book on dentists, Doctor De Soto and the doctor was happy even though I had drawn all over it when I was four years old.  My mom started quizzing us from this encyclopedic book called The Bournvita Book of Knowledge.  Here are some of my favorite questions I remember from the evening.  Let us see if you can answer them in the comment box:
1.    Which is the heaviest dog?
2.    What is the biggest desert in Asia?
3.    What is the difference between a passport and a visa?
