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..."

Thank dad for good genesI got my gnashers from dad's side of the family - a bit yellow but we can chew through hawsers with the damn things. My mum and sister, on the other hand, have teeth made of chalk. Oh the happy childhood dental visits when little sis would come out with 4 or 5 or 6 fillings and the dentist, snarling with disappointment, would prod vainly round my mouth looking for something to do.
Not a particularly amusing story, I agree, but it's nice to have a bit of my body that actually does what it's bloody supposed to. For a change. Har har gloat.
