With all apologies to the writers of Christmas carols world-wide, this is what popped out when I sat to write for the current Trifecta challenge. Sing along with me now:

Up on the roof-top
Dental pause
In with a wad
Of icky gauze

Working around
My cheeks and gums
Why, oh why does
The dentist hum?

Ho, ho, ho
Here we go
Ho, ho, ho
Give me more

Novocain or
Numbing gel
Good lord, just look
At my cheek swell
—————————————–

All in good fun – hoping you all have a wonderful Christmas with your family and friends.

    I should be grossed out, but actually, this was cute as heck.

    Thanks for the smile

  3. Loved this! My dentist also hums and asks me many questions while cleaning my teeth.

    That was very clever and funny!

    Thanks for joining us this week at Trifecta. We got a lot of Christmas responses this week, but yours was the only interpretation of a carol. Dentists who hum are pretty creepy–you did a fabulous job capturing that. Hope your Christmas was merry and that you’ll join us back next week.
