Dentists
My 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..."

Boyfriend
When I said I was going to the dentist, my boyfriend asked me to book up for him. He hadn't been for a few years, he said, as he admitted to a huge fear of dentists. One of the last times he had an appointment, he deliberately went to their old address, after they'd moved, just so he didn't have to go.
Although he wanted me to book it, I wasn't allowed to mention when it was or talk about it at all. The D word was not allowed. He told me I had to get him there without him knowing.
I tried. Really I did. I had to cancel it three times as he'd caught wind of it.
In the end I had him come along to the appointment immediately after mine and he made it. Then it turns out that the last time he'd seen a dentist was 26 years ago.
