Not Supposed to Giggle at the Dentist
Sep. 23rd, 2011 01:15 pmSo in the middle of the root canal last night, as the dentist is using tiny files to get the nerves at the bottom of the tooth, I started giggling. Somewhat nervously, the dentist stopped and asked if everything was okay.
I laughed and pointed out that he's got this itty bitty little thing he's thrusting in and out of a tight channel and asking if I can feel anything.
The dental assistant got it before he did.
Later, I was giggling because the latex gloves were squeaking. I explained as it sounded like someone was making balloon animals.
There was a slight pause, an then the dental assistant started laughing again.
... My dentist makes balloon animal as a hobby, he'd made her a flower a few months prior.
*facepalm*

(new crown is in already and fits well, even if eating is currently a bit of an experience. I like this dentist!)
