Thrills from the Drill

With my dentist's appointment booked for this afternoon and looking for blog inspiration, I thought what better way to prepare myself for the joy of drilling than with an exploration of dental fetishism.

Medical fetishes are popular and to some extent common with even mainstream sex shops like

Ann Summers selling nurse's outfits. Many patients often feel attraction to their GP, nurse or dentist, although I suspect that this is more due to Stockholm Syndrome

than true sexual desire.

Many observers believe that medical fetishism is rooted in childhood behavioural imprinting. However, dentistry, for many, is a taboo too far. While the thought of having a dental examination leaves many overwhelmed with dread, there are some who derive masochistic thrills from the dentist's drill.

Years ago, I spoke to a friend studying to be a dentist about training. She mentioned that it was an eye-opener and proceeded to tell me about a client who actually asked whether it would be ok for him to masturbate as she worked on him. At the time, she laughed it off, but I could see she was rattled by this paraphilia.

Fortunately for her, the internet has allowed this group to be catered for from the privacy of their own homes. Sites such as

Dental Fetish cater to this group's needs with images of dentistry in action. Unlike your typical porn site, models are shown from the neck up - with focus being given to their crowns, caps and fillings. BDSM dentistry dvds and tools

(calling them toys would be a stretch - even for me) are readily available for those seeking dental action - both in fantasy and reality.
