Gums are definitely worse. The most painful part for me is having my jaw open that long. If they will give you something to brace it it really helps.
Big stop just to renew your license to companion. Can I use companion as a verb?

Awkward and uncomfortable, mostly. And you will be glad you have boobs of a certain size.

Freezing cold office and machine, stickers on your nipples and any moles, technician placing them on shelflike things.

Well for me, it was never that painful, but it was awkward. For one thing, here they don't give you a gown, so you're walking into the room from the consultation room tits out. Other than putting your boob on the plate, it's the technician puts you and your boob into positions, which can be awkward. (Like arm holding the machine, leaning ever so slightly in on the right side.) The most it ever hurt was similar to the pressure on your arm when the blood pressure cuff is inflated, and it only takes a few seconds. They've had to retake mine, but they do it on the spot.

Your breast will be flopped/placed on a plate, then another plate will be lowered till it's squished mostly flat. This will pull on the tissues to various degrees of discomfort depending on the size and structure of your breast. Vertical and horizontal. You'll get a corner of the plate digging into your torso uncomfortably at various points.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
OK, not too bad. Sounds like I've had lovers do worse things to my boobs.
BTW, I called the Red Cross and I cannot be a blood donor, for sure.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame
Never not had a gown, never had stickets, but smooshing and awkward positions. All in all, I'd rather get my boobs smooshed than go to the dentist.

The stickers crack me up. I may bring my own! I wish I had pasties, just because.

I didn't have much problem with my mammogram. Big, fatty boobs tend to do well, as they squish nicely and it doesn't take much effort to pull them appropriately on the plate. There were a couple moments of discomfort, but nothing that lingered after the procedure was done.

I have always wondered how our small-breasted sisters fared in those machines. I've got old, floppy ones, and it's always a little disturbing to see them laid out on a plate. A little too St. Agnes.
