"Henry I presume?I am Janice, Dr. Adams assistant."
"Yes" I huffed exhausted from the run.
"We were just about to lock the door. It is a good thing you made it on time. If you could just fill out this form with your information I will take you back right away so we can all go home before it gets too late."
I hastily signed the forms and followed as she led me to the dental exam room.
The office was a clean white modern office with a few tasteful bright coloured accents. As we walked past the other rooms it was much the same except the chairs which were all bright colours.
"Here we are Henry. Is there anything else I can get you?" she asked as she ushered me into the room.
"You know, a glass of water would be great. I am pretty thirsty after that run."
"Sure right away, Dr. Adams will be with you in a few minutes and I will be right back with that glass of water. In the mean time take a seat." she motion towards the purple coloured dental chair in the middle of the room.
I took a seat on the pearlescent PVC covered chair. It seemed a bit odd as I had never seen one like in a dentist office before. As I sat there and waited the smell of the PVC and the sound it made was surprisingly enjoyable. I was enjoying it so much I didn't even notice the receptionist return with a cup of water.
"Sorry to startle you. I see you are enjoying our new chairs. They were a custom made chair just for us and you are one of the first patients to experience them. I hope you find it enjoyable."
"uh- yes" I stammered unsure how to respond " They are quite nice"
No sooner had she passed me the water than I had down the entire glass. "Allow me to get you another glass" She filled it up again and passed it back. "Dr. Adams is just finishing with another patient and will be with you any moment. In the meantime enjoy the chair, I put on some music while you wait.
Time seemed to slip away as I sat in the chair, I realized it was the first time in weeks that I had stopped working. Just as the thought passed though my mind I heard a voice behind me.
" You must be Henry. My name is Dr. Lindsey Adams. What brings you today?"
Dr. Adams was about 5'10" with straight dirty blonde hair. It was pulled back into a neat ponytail with out a single one out of place. Her eyes were dark blue and mesmerizing. she was wearing a fitted set of white scrubs that accented her well endowed figure.
"Henry?"
I was so taken back by her I forgot to respond. "Uh...I...Uh...my moral has been quite painful for the last little while I was hoping to could take a look."
"Sure. It is a good thing you made it here before we closed today, we wouldn't want you to suffer any longer than you have to."
Dr Adams pulled up a rolling stool, and began to lower the chair with the foot controls. While the chair was slowly going horizontal she put on a light pink medical mask and slowly pulled on purple medical gloves.
Once the chair was horizontal she wheel her chair around the top of my head and pulled the exam light close and adjusted it so the bright light was shining in to my eyes.
"Alright lets take a look. Open wide."
After a few moments of poking around and in my mouth she looked up and called out "Janice! It looks like Henry here is going to need quite a bit of work could you get the x-ray machine turned on so we can start making things better for him."
She turned back to face me, her eyes sparkling above the pink medical mask. "Well Henry it looks like you will have to have some pretty major work done if we want to solve this problem. The first thing that we are going to need to do is take and X-Ray. Because of the scope of the work we are going to use a different type of X-Ray so we can get a fuller picture of your mouth."
She reached back and pulled out a pink vinyl covered lead vest. " Sorry about the colour there was some mix-up with the order. But you don't mind wearing a little pink do you?"
"No pink its fine." At this point I was so caught up in her beauty she could have asked me to dump coals on my head and I would have done it.
She placed the lead vest over my chest and stomach. The vest felt heavier than I remember especially on my abdomen, I dismissed it though but it did make the need to go to the bathroom that much greater.
"As I said with this X-Ray there is a little different, for us to get a good picture there will be a flexible bulb that will go inside your mouth and barrier that covers your lips allowing us to get a full picture of your jaws. Some patients find it a bit difficult to keep in so there is a small strap to hold it in place while we take the X-Rays. Does that sound ok."
"yeah sure as long as it takes my pain away"
"I am very confident that by the time we are done Henry we will have you fixed up better than you could ever expect"
She rolled off to the side of the room to get the X-Ray bulb ready. I followed her with my eyes until I was blinded by the light and had to look away. I again noticed some pressure in my abdomen I wasn't sure if it was from watching Dr. Adams or the pressure from the vest. I was about to ask to go to the bathroom when Dr. Adams rolled back to above my head on the stool.
" Are you ready?"
"I guess so. When we are done with the X-Ray you don't mind if I use the little boys room do you?"
"Not a problem, but I should warn you we don't have a room for little boys only little girls" She giggled to herself.
I thought it was a bit of an odd response but just dismissed it some sort of inside joke. "Open wiiiide" she sang "Remember just breathe trough your nose and try to relax and this will be over before you know it."
She placed the bulb inside my mouth it was a little bigger than I expected, and fastened a strap. "Alright now we are ready. Lets hope that machine works it has been giving us problems lately."
She positioned an other arm close to my face and left the room. 'Great' I thought to myself ' I have to pee and their machine might not work' I tried to focus on breathing and not on the pressure on my bladder. As I was waiting for Dr. Adams to come back the pressure only increased. I began to suck on the bulb in my mouth to try to relieve the stress and was surprised that it helped.
Janice then popped her head in the door. "Sorry sweetie we are having a few issues with the machine just another minute or two."
I tried to let her know that I was about to burst but all that came out was a muffled cry. About to wet myself and determined not to I decided to get up and go to the bathroom. As I went to lift my head, it was pulled back to the seat by the bulb in my mouth. Dr. Adams must have wrapped all the way around by mistake. I began to suck on the bulb hard hoping that it would give me some relief. I focused on that and breathing through my nose as I was now trapped in the purple chair, covered in a light pink smock with what can only be described as a pacifier in my mouth about to wet my pants.
As the reality that, I was sucking on a pacifier and about to wet my pants began to set in. I began to think about other options I might have. I thought that perhaps I could swing my legs off to one side of the chair and somehow twist free. As I began to lift my legs off to one side I realized that the light pink lead also attached to the chair and as I moved my legs up the pressure on my abdomen increased and that is when it happened.
No longer able to hold it in my bladder let go filling my pants with warm liquid. And I began to wimper. It had hardly been an hour since had left work and now I was trapped in a dentist chair and wetting my pants, sucking on a pacifier. What else could possibly go wrong.
At that moment Dr. Adams walked into the room. "Well we have got your Xray, sorry about the delay....Oh dear it looks like you had an accident. Lets get you cleaned up right away. Janice" she called to the other room " Henry had a little accident. Could you go grab a change for our patient?"
Dr. Adams turned towards me and wiped a tear away from my cheek. She then placed her hands on my hands which were resting on the PVC covered arm rests of the chair. She subbed them gently and said " Don't worry dear we you aren't the first person to have a little accident here we will get you changed up and every thing will be all right soon enough."
I was still so caught up in my emotions and the sweetness of her voice, that I didn't even notice that she had strapped my wrists to the chair. She moved the light and the X-Ray arms out of the way and moved reached down towards my pants to undo my belt. It was when I went to stop her that I noticed my wrist were strapped to the chair.
