Red face

My dentist just pinches my cheek and sort of jiggles it (he uses a gauze pad). Then he injects little bits here and there , then more, and there is
rarely any sensation at all. He told me he learned this in dental school, but I had 2 previous dentists who didn't do this trick so I don't know if only some schools teach this or not?

I do close my eyes as I don't like to watch the needle coming though LOL.
