Today, I took my 12 year-old to the orthodontist. While I was talking to the dentist about what was needing to be done, my daughter listened. With a straight face, the dentist joked, "Yeah, we're going to need to rip off her entire jaw." My daughter won't leave her room anymore. FML

Autumn: Leaves and Laughter
When the leaves fall, the laughter rises. Discover autumn stories as crisp as dried leaves!
Today, while my orthodontist was working on my teeth, she made the comment, "Wow! It looks like a murder scene in there!" FML
Today, I caught my young daughter eating candy after brushing her teeth. Angry, I asked her if she wanted all her teeth to fall out. She smiled and said, “Yes!” FML
Today, I have an orthodontist's appointment, and I told my best friend that I was going to get my teeth fixed. She replied, "Wow, thanks. Your smile's really awful to have to look at." FML
Today, I took my two-year-old daughter to the dentist for her first check-up. We were at the front desk when she tripped, fell and chipped her front tooth on the marble floor. FML
Today, I went to the school dentist for the yearly routine check. She took ages trying to clean out my teeth with the metal toothpick-thing, constantly hitting my gums. After half an hour of pain and spitting blood, she looks up and says, laughing: "Oh, I forgot to put my glasses on". FML
Today, I heard a little girl saying how much she didnt want braces to her mom because they hurt and make people look ugly. I looked at her and said, "Aww, there not that bad. See, I have them!" I then smiled to show her. She turned to her mom and said, "See!" then started to cry. FML
Today, I was in line at the store behind a lady and her young daughter. Trying to be polite I smiled at the little girl. She burst into tears asking her mommy 'what is wrong with that ladies teeth'. Apparently braces on a 25 year old is not 'kid friendly'. FML
Today, our daughter was diagnosed with hypodontia, which means half her adult teeth never formed, so when she loses baby teeth, no adult teeth exist to replace them. This is going to cost a fortune since she’s either gonna need dentures or multiple surgeries to insert artificial teeth. FML
Today, I lost a tooth and got my jaw wired shut after my toddler managed to break my jaw by whacking me with a plastic toy. Hello at least 8 weeks of being unable to talk while only eating meals that have been thoroughly blitzed into a liquid form first. FML
Today, I went to the orthodontist. The lady took a break and went to use the restroom. Apparently she didn't bother to take her gloves off, and they smelled like straight up pee. She had her hands in my mouth for over an hour. FML

Me either! Going to the dentist is already uncomfortable enough without these kinds of jokes!

I think we need to drill into the situation.

I was at the orthodontist and the doctor told an assistant that I had a G. I asked what it meant and he said with a straight face that it meant a growth. It actually mean good, as in good hygiene.

Eventually.... After many years of cavities and lots and lots of therapy.

The reason I hated dentists when I was a kid is these sick jokes they make!! It's like they enjoy seeing the patient frightened!

Those kinds of 'jokes' can destroy a child's trust in medical professionals. What a jackass, to say something like that.

She won't leave her room? Is the dentist like the demon in those chain letters in that he's going to be by her bed at 3:00 am to take her jaw off?

It's because she didn't send the story to 10 people before midnight.

That comment has been said to me about 50 times. It never gets old.

She'll calm down eventually, but really, what was he thinking?

"Maybe this kid has an adult/morbid sense of humor!" *screaming* "...****."

#6 most people hate the dentist, dentists know this and sometimes they try way too hard to be funny. Every time I go I'm clinched tight enough to pass diamonds and I haven't even had a bad experience with a dentist. Except military dental, but they're butchers and don't count as dentists in my mind.

My dentist is awesome. You guys just have terrible dentists.

I have an irrational fear of the dentist, if they said that I would probably do the same. To me even a check up is terrifying.

And that is the beginning of an irrational fear.

Given the circumstance, I'd say a rational fear.
