At the Dentist


Just after Christmas I broke a tooth (biting into a piece of chocolate!). Ouch - a visit to the dentist.

My dentist is Frank Dillon who is based in Henry St. I first met Frank when he was practicing in Monkstown with (my then) dentist - Des Fortune. I like Frank - he's cool and also near enough the same age as me. Today, while on his chair, we agreed that 1970's music was the best.

Frank's surgery is what a dental practice should look like - everything is clean and white. Even his computers are white, there are Apple iMacs everywhere - in fact you might wonder whether you are visiting a dentist or a computer laboratory. Frank is very proud of his set-up, and tries his best to convert me from the PC to the Mac.

Oh - and he's an excellent dentist too! See his (very white) website - there's even a iMac on his Home Page!

Brendan O'Connor wrote about a visit to Frank's surgery in his Diary (scroll down to Tuesday) in the Sunday Independent on 15th June, 2008. Like me, O'Connor is fascinated by all the gear. I have to agree with O'Connor's brilliant last line "I love it. Frank's dental practice is like fight club without the fighting".
