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..."

Dentists - no problemWhen I was a lad I had no fear of the dentist, and still don't. However, I used to scream the place down when my mum took me to have a haircut, possibly because the local barber was liable to cause me more pain by nicking skin with his razor (no AIDS in those days thankfully!), and tugging with his comb at my tousled mop.
Ironically I now have short, neat hair (most of it's still in place) but pretty awful teeth. Some are missing, some are squint, three are crowned, I've got gum abscesses and dozens of fillings.
Develop a healthy dislike for your dentist - it'll help your teeth in the long run!
