Thanks everyone. In order to have the dentists face far enough away from "my" teeth he couldn't reach "my" mouth.His assistant is crouched in front of him holding the tools and you see her finger. #6308257Dominick M. Dimacale August 13, 2008

This is one of the most creative images I've seen! Your execution is perfect and this is worthy of some kind of advertising award!Joseph N. DiGilio August 28, 2008
I loved this the first time I saw it. It is so imaginative but more than that you are able to give your ideas life. That's something we're all not able to do. There is no doubt in my mind this will win the gold, LOLWAC. If I was a betting man, and I am, I'd put a few bucks on it, if I could get good odds. LOL #6382161Debbie E. Payne September 01, 2008
How in the world did you do this? Only, you, Irene, could have pulled this off! Just amazing. We don't expect an answer...trade secrets and all! Try selling this one to the ADA!! #6396318Cora Miller September 06, 2008
