Dentist Chair

Even though I hate being reminded of going to the dentist, this is still a really cool shot Motts.

Wow, Motts! That shot strikes fear into my heart despite its beauty!

'You expect me to talk?'
'No Mr Bond... I expect you to Die...'
the way the lamp head is.. looks more like a drill or laser, lol.

scary, I had a tooth pulled last week!!!

Ewwwwwwwwwwwww...dentist

An impromptu Ode to the Dentist By: Bri
My dentist is evil, I swear
He always hurts me when I sit in his chair
I have narry and cavity
But narry does not count
For he pokes and prods
He doesn't care an ounce
I bleed and choke
But my teeth are "clean"
This funny, funny bloke
Wants to make them gleam
My dentist is evil, I swear it is true
If you don't believe me go visit him
Take warning...he'll do the same to you!


Awwwwwwwwwwwww...pretty shot!

see that right there is why I am afraid of my dentist (***shudders***)

here is it, the soap dispenser :-)

"Tell us where you have hidden the item, Mr. Motts, and we will spare you much pain......"
My apologies for the spontaneous bad joke.

One of the few things that freak me out is the dentist.

Is It Safe?...

Nice Ode to the Dentist, Bri. I'm just glad my dentist still has a gentle touch (not like my old dentist, I believe he studied in German concentration camps)

I'm already afraid of the dentist...I can't even imagine sitting in this chair!

This one litteraly scares me. I want to RUN from this picture.

Thanks, never going to the dentist again.

Khai - that's not a lamp, it's the business end of an X-Ray machine.

How many people were in this chair without nouvican (sp?)

That chair reminds me of when I was a kid going to the dentist and why I dont go today!

I know you're new here, so I'll just warn you... it's VERY dangerous to go summoning the doctor... you have NO IDEA what I might do!

and what might i do

i want that chair here in my house

This looks like the scene from Little Shop of Horrors -- the one with Jack Nicholson -- check it out -- same dentist chair --

That shot created a flashback for me. A dentist who worked on the patients at Danvers State, was named Dr. Fang. No lie!

i love this photo to my grave

Apart from getting my teeth cleaned, I actually do like the dentist. I think sitting in this chair, though, might change my mind...

I agree w/Khai! That thing does look like a drill or laser, pointed right at the patient's head! Um, I'm actually one of the people who likes going to the dentist. I go every 6 mos. to get a teeth cleaning and make sure they're in good shape!I made the mistake a few yrs. ago of not going for 2 years (nasty, I know) and I had 2 horrible cavities.

Another thought...I wonder what happened to that "spit and rinse" sink thingie dentists keep next to the chair. Or did they even have such things back then? Probably not.

ive got pictures sittin in that chair

Why do these older Dentists Examiniation rooms remind one
of a Torture Chamber ?

Sara B. Try six cavities with no local anesthesia.

Fun with a capital F. Thank God I found the bliss of local anesthesia afted getting over my fear of needles. Now I even like to pop in to a dentist's office, which is pretty weird if you start to think of it...8D hmmm.. Not into something like this tho' .. "Umm, I actually like caries..BYE!"

Anyway, nicely captured Motts! ; )

wiy do thay do that to them

They sit you down, put a lead-lined vest on you, and stick a film-slide in your mouth, and have you hold it in place with your teeth. Then they position that deal at where the slide is, tell you to hold still, and go into a booth, and trigger a shot of x-rays for a second or so, and come back for another slide, and repositioning. Benn there, done that. LOL

My dentist when I was a kid had an xray machine exactly like that, except that the end of it was covered by a plastic cone. I always thought it was a drill and it terrified me - I thought "no wonder people are afraid of the dentist if they put a drill like that into your mouth!" I didn't have a cavity until I was a teenager and found out then that it was an xray machine and not a drill - boy did I feel dumb!

In addition to the novacane, they gave me a shot of thorazine in that chair when I began to "act out." Oh wait, that was a nightmare I had!

You vill give us ze fotographs Mr Motts, ve haff veys , ah yes ve haff vays!!!

What is the big deal everybody? You all should know that is a Medicaid Dental Clinic. See, no doctor in sight and my tooth hurts!

their is an abandoned building in my town which housed a denist office among many other things from the 20's-80's and it still has some dentist equipment and chairs in it that are older than this one you can find it at www.forgottenoh.com the building is called the Techumseh Building it's in the exploration section

that chair makes me relive some things that happened when i was a kid. I saw all these movies with the evil dentist strapping you to a torn up raggey chair and torturing you too insanity. I WOULD NEVER SIT IN THAT CHAIR. I HATE THE DENTIST.

Interesting photo but disturbing too. What happened to Dr. Giggles?

Ok so this is the single most creepy photo on your site. Its is awesome but *shudders* y'know what I mean. I have a dentist appointment tomorrow...

It's not the same dental chair, but it still brings back memories:

I've been terrified of the dentist since I was about 8 years old. My regular dentist had a family emergency so his partner was covering his appointments for that day, one of which happened to be mine. I had badly chipped my two front teeth a couple of years earlier in a bike accident, and that icy cold air they used to use, to dry your teeth, I think, before they had the suction device they use today--caused severe fingernails-on-a-chalkboard type pain. My regular dentist knew this and was very careful. This dentist didn't, and when I started to cry he put his hand over my nose and mouth until I stopped crying because I couldn't breathe. I never did tell my parents.

lordy-good-heavens, this is quite something. (about the chipped teeth thing, OUCH, who knows what other unpleasant places that substitute dentist worked/tortures learned in dealing with small children!) That abusive incident aside, I almost find it amusing that dental appointments are what makes most of us batty and our blood run cold. :) ? -I survived 2 years of braces (revolting tasting cement & impression tray stuff) and as far as regular dentistry goes, my 3 or so small cavities were nothing compared to the week following removal of all 4 wisdom teeth (1 with a 3rd root) Nitrous-great! massive-scale antibiotics...sick after 4 days. Not bothered by dentistry, though...until the day I might need a root canal.

That why i am scare of the dentist.
