'The dream job' (orthodontist)
« on: 05. March 2023, 14:51:17 PM »
A small story idea I have in mind. Anyone interested in something like this?

The dream job: How it began

Vanessa always had a big interest about teeth. When her first child tooth fell out, she was so excited. Finally, she was going to get her adult teeth. In a matter of years, most of her adult teeth presented themself. But the worse thing was, they all became crooked. All the adults around her had presentable teeth, why was she so unlucky? Not a single adult had crooked teeth like here. One day there was a substitute teacher she never saw before.

When she was following her math lesson, she saw a small glint coming from the mouth of her teacher. She became really curious. Teeth were always the first thing she saw on a person. Here attention always went to the mouth. She couldn’t stop to the look at the  mouth of her teacher. Dreaming in class, she didn’t even notice the teacher looking at here. Only a tap on her shoulder made here aware of it.

Teacher: ‘Vanessa, stop dreaming, what is 4+3?’

Fully aware of the situation, Vanessa answered the correct answer. Still admiring the glint in the mouth, she was almost sure what it was. The teacher had metal in her mouth, something she never saw before. The bell ring and it was lunchtime. Still wondering what her teacher had in her mouth, she ate her lunch.

After the lunchbreak she came back in the classroom. There was something strange in the room. There was a mold of teeth in front of the classroom. All teeth had big pieces of metal attached to it. It was the in the 80s and the first time she became fully aware of braces. Her teacher gave a presentation about braces and here interest about braces began.

Just like the teacher, Vanessa eventually had braces and her teeth got perfectly straight. Her interest got further than only wanting braces. Eventually she became an orthodontist and made a lot of teeth perfectly straight. After a while, people came back to get braces again. The teeth relapped in the old position, this made Vanessa frustrated.

The dream job: Not you again

Just like every day, Vanessa entered her own orthodontist office. Unlike many offices, she did it all by herself. She found it very relaxing to straighten the teeth of her clients. Most of the time, her clients weren’t able to talk while she was working in their mouths. Even in her everyday life, she wasn’t a talker. But even without doing any promotion around here office, they always knew where to find here. Unlike most offices, she did here job very thorough. Lots of famous people came to here for the perfect Hollywood smile. Clients were able to register themselves with a very practical online system. After all these years, Vanessa didn’t even care to look at the upcoming appointments.

Not long after she entered here office, her first client arrived. She saw her enter, a spoiled girl named Mary. Here working day began good just a usual, but her mood changed rapidly. It wasn’t noticeable from the outside, but she began to boil from the inside. Mary was a very familiar girl for Vanessa. Until today, she already had braces twice. She never wore here retainers, which made here teeth return to their old positions. Vanessa really loved to straighten the teeth of her clients. She loved making the perfect smiles for the rest of their lives.   

Without saying a word, Mary walked past Vanessa. She entered the room, where the dentist chair was positioned. She immediately sat down in the chair. She began to make selfish with her phone. It took some time before Mary acknowledged Vanessa presence. I want you to get this for me.

On the screen, Vanessa saw the website of Invisalign. She had never been content with Invisalign. It was not enough to get the right end result. It never made the teeth the way she wanted. But Invisalign wasn’t the worse thing she saw. The face of the spoiled brat was the worst. She made a small nod and went to the back room to make some plaster for the impressions. She returned to Mary and she reluctantly opened her mouth. Vanessa put the moulds inside and could finally look at Mary’s without disgust. She looked into Mary’s eyes with a face with a bit of distress. Vanessa knew how Mary hated taking impressions.   

Removing the moulds Mary began to gag. A small smile formed on Vanessa’s face, which Mary couldn’t see. Just the way Mary entered, she left the office. She had been here many times and knew she would automatically get a notification for her next appointment.

Vanessa really hated the idea of using Invisalign at her office. Why didn’t she just tell no to Mary. She had a lot of famous people enter here practise, but she still felt like an underdog. Was she really going to use the impressions for Invisalign or had she other ideas?

The dream job:  Finding out new things

Besides Vanessa’s job, there wasn’t much going on in her life. Most of the time, she spend here evenings alone on her couch. Most of her life she had been on her own. She only had a boyfriend in high school, but nothing after that. In one of those lonely evenings she started browsing the internet. Even after her work she was constantly doing all kind of research for her office.

Years ago she had done some research about clear aligners, but perhaps some things were different now a days. She started browsing for more information and didn’t find anything of her likings.  She found more information about the use of attachments and wondered if it would give the right effect. She still hated the idea of using something different than the regular metal brackets. Those brackets simple did their job better. She had already send the impressions to her regular company and she was sure the aligners for Mary would arrive pretty soon.

Curious about the history of braces she further began to browse on the internet. She found all kind of pictures of older types of braces. Even pictures of brackets that surrounded the whole teeth. She began to get the goosebumps wondering how anyone would ever approve something like this. Her curiosity began to expand and she searched for more thing. After some time she found information about a braces fetish. She never imagined a fetish like that would be around. Here look on the world slowly began to change.

Very interesting approach. I am intrigued to see what direction the story goes but I think young Mary may be in for a shock.
