DentistsMy current dentist is called Mr Stiff.
Back when I was at university though, I had enormous pain in my jaw one morning - so bad I went as an emergency case to the uni dentist.
He took one look at the back of my mouth and said, "Ah, wisdom teeth. Impacted. They'll have to come out."
He then reached under the chair and came out with an enormous industrial (and entirely non-dental) pair of pliers, "I can do it now if you want..."

Not really a fear, but lack of anaesthetic...I fear gynaecologists as much as most people fear dentists--same thing, really--someone poking in a sensitive part of your body with mucuous membranes with cold metallic instruments, causing pain lasting for days on end, urgh.
The last time I went to the dentist I had to have TWO shots of anaesthetic 'cause I'm such a fucking alkie. And that was just a filling, urgh. The worst horror story I have is of this big, enormous Nazi nurse bitch, ripping out one of my wisdom teeth before the anaesthetic had started working. Come to think of it, gingers need more anaesthetic anyway, from what I've read. So if that happens to you fellow gingers out there, just say that there are medical studies on teh Intarwebs proving that gingers need more anaesthetic.
