Once I went to the dentist. There was a little kid in the waiting room. When the dentist called his name, he ran and hid behind the chair. He said he thought the dentist was going to turn him into a toothless monster. It was so hilarious.
Some of the most memorable ones include a situation where a dentist was singing along to the radio while working on a patient's teeth. The patient joined in and they had a mini - concert right there in the dental office. Another is a story about a patient who brought his pet hamster to the dentist appointment. The hamster escaped and ran all over the office, causing chaos. And there was a dentist who had a patient with a very unique laugh. Every time the dentist said something funny, the patient's laugh was so loud and contagious that it made the whole office laugh.
There are quite a few. I heard of a dentist who had a patient with a very loud sneeze. Every time the dentist got close to his mouth, the patient would sneeze. After several tries, the dentist finally said 'Let's wait for your sneeze to go on vacation'. Another funny story is about a young girl who told the dentist she wanted a 'princess tooth' instead of a filling. She even brought a picture of a princess to show what she meant. And a dentist once had a patient who tried to talk with all the dental tools in his mouth, which was really hilarious.
One common element is patients' misunderstandings. For example, a patient might think a simple check - up is going to be really painful and act all dramatic before anything even starts. Another is when dentists make small mistakes like the ones I mentioned before, like getting the wrong tool. Also, the reactions of patients when they see some of the strange - looking dental tools can be really funny. They might look at the tool with horror and ask all kinds of funny questions.
Sure. One time a little boy was so scared of the dentist that when the dentist asked him to open his mouth, he opened his eyes really wide instead. It was so hilarious.
The interaction between the dentist and the assistant can also be a great source of humor. If the assistant mishears an instruction and does something completely different, like handing the wrong tool, and the dentist reacts with a witty comment. It often makes for a very funny story.
Sure. One story is about a little boy who was so scared of the dentist. When the dentist showed him the drill, the boy asked if it was a mini spaceship tool. The dentist laughed and then explained what it was really for in a very funny way, and the boy relaxed.
One of the scariest stories is when a dentist was distracted during a procedure. He was on his phone and as a result, he drilled into the wrong tooth. The patient was horrified and had to go through additional procedures to fix the damaged tooth. Another situation is when a dentist didn't use enough anesthesia. The patient could feel most of the pain during a filling. And some dentists' offices are not very clean. There have been reports of finding bugs or dirt in the dental chair area, which is really off - putting for patients.
One of the scary dentist stories could be about a patient who went in for a simple filling but the dentist accidentally drilled too deep and hit a nerve. It was extremely painful and led to long - term nerve damage. Another might be a story where a patient woke up during a major dental surgery due to improper anesthesia. And there could be a story of a dentist's office that was rumored to be haunted, with strange noises heard during procedures.
There was a story where a person went to a new dentist. During the examination, the dentist seemed very distracted. When he started drilling, he drilled too deep into a healthy part of the tooth by mistake. The patient felt an intense pain and the whole experience was terrifying. It led to a lot of complications later on as the tooth got infected.
