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..."

orthodontists oh nomy orthodontist was a nice enough woman, apart from the goats skull she had on her all and looking like a vampire.
anyway im 13 years old and not looking forward to getting braces, i already have glasses and curly hair metal mouth would be the final insult!!!, so i go to the orthodontist for my first appointment.
On peering into my mouth the orthodontist decides i need an xray, this xray shows that i still have some beby teeth and antoher rogue toth growin out of the roof of my mouth, which will need to be removed before the metal can gon in me gob.
Three months later i am off to hosptial for the gob op, i get a day off school and a general anesthetic, wooo! the operation went well and i cam out and waited for my butchered mouth to recover before going for a second xray.
The second Xray reveals that not only are my babty teeth STILL there but that so is the mental mouth tooth, it turns out that the clever doctors at worcester royal infirmary had had a lovely day carving a nice big hole into my gum and then filling it back up with gauze, for the craic like!
I have the second operation a month later, i am xrayed directly afterwards and this time the offending teeth are gone, but they have left a sizable bit of gum flapping around inside my mouth, which needs to be removed, bear ion mind that over the past two months i had had two general anesthetics and this was only a day after the second, the clever doctors decide not to bother with local to remove the gum and just whip it out with a scalpel whils attempting to engage me in converstion about Dr Who, the bastards. I diddnt eat for about 2 weeks because of the pain and lost 2 and a half stone.
I love dentists i wish i could go to one now, it beats dieting and excersise by a long shot, but my teeth are still crooked and the vampire orthodontist never got all the glue off, id have me teeth cleaned but i know i am going to need fillings and possible a root canal if a dentist looked in side my cakehole so i am waiting to win the lottery before i go, either that or be on the dole.
in an unrelated story my mate was once so skint and in need of dental treatment that he went for dantal surgery but refused to pay for the painkilling injection, fair play to him he got through it but he said the pain was so bad that in order to stop himself screaming he had to pinch himslf on the chest, he was bruised for a month, last time he went he got hyper painkillers sensible if you ask me
