Of course. Parents tried to take me to a dentist that had gotten a bit of fame by being one of the oldest & longest practicing dentists around. He was shaking when he was checking my cavity-could feel the pic vibrating in my mouth (manual pic, his hands were THAT shaky.) Tried to tell them gently I wasn't comfortable but they made me spell it out. Felt bad embarrassing him but NO WAY was he coming near MY mouth with a drill!
