My Dentist Slapped Me, Hard

And the nightmare didn’t end there

My dentist slapped me across the face viciously and without warning while I was being fitted for a retainer as a child.

The incident happened when I was still in elementary school. My parents were fond of their own dentist, but they wanted me to see a dentist who had experience dealing with children.
