The Perfect Smile, Page 3

PAGE 3, PANEL 1

A dental office scene with a spotlight shining down. A blonde woman in a pink sweater and purple skirt sits in the dental chair looking worried. A dentist with short dark hair stands beside her, smiling.

BLONDE PATIENT: "Ut, I tawt my teef wur fine?"

(Note: Speech impaired because mouth is open for examination)

DENTIST: "Well, technically they are, but cosmetically..."

DENTIST: "You can close your mouth now."

To be honest, my dentist said it was only a cosmetic issue. Later on it turned out it wasn’t.

I use this blonde character a lot as a surrogate for myself. I never gave her a name. As always, you can tell it’s me because the character isn’t Rachel the Great :p
