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..."

boyfriend's experiencesaged around 11, he was in a car crash. Though it was quite a nasty one, he was generally ok, but for three of his top front teeth getting buried in his cheek via his gums. ow ow ow. he has the most fantastic scars (subtle, but there, was a long time ago after all) - one under his left eye where they had to pull the teeth out of his cheek, and another one running down his cheek from under his right eye from where his face was mashed a bit.
Now, to solve this lack-of-teeth issue, his dentist decided on a bridge across his front left tooth across to the right lateral, i think it's called. This meant he is left with a perfect, straight, dazzling top row. Place that in a smile which even my mother terms as 'spectacular' (I would call it a 'shit-eating grin' myself, makes a lot of people, boys and girls, wobbly at the knees but he genuinely has no idea how to use it...bless) However, despite his protestations that South African dentistry is among the best in the world, i have a small point to make.
The bottom row of his teeth SUCK. They are wobbly, chipped and out of keeping with the top row. The dentist, obviously quite proud of the top row, decided to stop there. Small mercy, they are the same colour.
But dammit, it looks sexy. It's quite odd.
