Today, I got bitten at work. Not by a patient's mouth, but by the false teeth they were holding in their hand as they clamped down on my arm. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, at the orthodontist, the nurse was checking my teeth. She asked me a question while her finger was in my mouth, and when I stupidly tried to reply, I bit her finger. FML
Today, I went to the dentist. She put a spongy thing on my teeth and told me to bite. Her finger was there, so I was confused and… I accidentally bit her finger. FML
Today, a fly landed on my dentist's arm. The same arm and hand holding the needle inserted into my gum. He instinctively tried to shake it off. FML
Today, I went to the dentist to get a cavity filled. The numbing medication didn't work, so I felt everything. I was in so much pain that I accidentally bit down on the dentist's finger, causing him to yell in agony. Now, I have to find a new dentist. FML
Today, I accidentally bit so hard on my fork that I cracked my tooth. FML
Today, it was my first day working at a dog boarding kennel. I got bit... by my coworker. FML
Today, the dentist sneezed in my mouth. FML
Today, my dentist pulled the wrong tooth. FML
Today, I had a dentist appointment in which a nurse numbed my mouth. After coming home, I took a nap in which I unknowing bit through my top lip. I physically can't speak. FML
Today, I tried to open the door with my mouth because my hands were full. I chipped a tooth. FML

My mom is a nurse and trust me when I say they have to deal with some pretty crazy stuff sometimes...and it says you're a student so this is just the beginning ;) Luckily it's a very rewarding career. I hope you don't run into any more crazies anytime soon OP.

Fun fact: until the '80s, many dentures were radioactive from uranium used to give realistic luminescence. So when you were bitten, you might've got the double whammy of superhero origins: radiation AND a unique bite. Pretty soon you'll be getting your powers. If your assailant is anything to go by, you might gain the ability to see poorly, need false teeth, and require care from a student nurse!

That's certainly something you didn't expect to happen when you woke up this morning! I hope you and the patient had a good laugh about it.

I'm a student nurse too and I got 'gummed' rather than bitten on my arm this week. I thought that was bad cos of the spit everywhere (she was holding a load of saliva in her mouth) but I think you win. Still, everyone says it'll be worth it when we're qualified - not sure I completely believe them. Good luck, OP!!
