Conversation with the dentist

Dentist: Good morning, Ms Karpinski. What’s the problem?

Patient: I’ve got toothache. I think it’s in this tooth.

Dentist: Right, let me have a look. Open your mouth wide.

Dentist: Does it hurt when I touch it?

Patient: Ow! Yes, it’s very painful.

Dentist: Yes, you’ve got some bad decay in there. I’m going to have to
fill that tooth.

Patient: Oh, OK, Can you do it now?

Dentist: No, you’ll need to book an appointment with the receptionist on the
way out. You should do it as soon as possible.

Patient: OK, I’ll do that.

Dentist: And remember to clean your teeth twice a day.

Patient: I will, thank you.

Dentist: Good bye Ms Karpinski

Patient: Bye
