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..."

A few years ago, I had braces fittedPrior to this, however, I had to have four molars removed - under general anaesthetic. Which was fun. The stuff doesn't wear off as soon as you wake up. I remember telling the nurse to bring my shoes as they were "bloody expensive".
Anyway, fast forward about an hour and I'm leaking copious quantities of blood from where me teeth used to be - all this in the back of the car. My grandad gave me salt water to congeal the blood - unfortunately it congealed in my mouth, which is utterly disgusting.
This was followed by many hours of bleeding into tissues. Bloody braces! I've had them off since, and my teeth still aren't straight.
