Today, I went to the dentist. My dentist kept talking to me while his hands were in my mouth. I attempted to tell him that it was difficult and dangerous to respond. My talking made him slip and slice my mouth open with one of his instruments. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I went to the dentist for a routine check-up, and halfway through the appointment, the dentist exclaimed, "Oops!" Turns out, he accidentally glued my lips together while fixing a tiny chip in my front tooth. I spent the next two hours communicating through exaggerated facial expressions and hand gestures. 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 went to my new dentist to get my teeth cleaned. He kept getting distracted, causing him to repeatedly stab me in the gums. He then had the nerve to tell me that I need to brush more, due to how I was bleeding just from his "routine examination". FML
Today, I went to the dentist to have two cavities filled. I hate going to the dentist. After he'd started drilling, I heard a "clunk" noise followed by an "Oops." My dentist had cut my tooth in half. Now I have to get surgery to have the tooth extracted. FML
Today, I went to the dentist to get a cavity filled. As the dentist was drilling, he accidentally hit a nerve and I ended up screaming in pain. The whole office heard me and now I'm too embarrassed to go back. FML
Today, I went to the dentist. She had a tool that sucks up saliva, and put it in my mouth. She told me to close my mouth, and I did. Turns out she forgot to turn it on, causing my saliva to go all over my face. I had to sit like that for the rest of the visit. 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, the dentist sneezed in my mouth. FML
Today, at the dentist, I was getting my teeth cleaned. Looking up at his nose, I saw runny snot dripping onto his lip. I tried to slowly move away. He told me "Stop!" The movement of his lips caused the snot to fall right into my mouth. FML
Today, at the dentist, I was trying to make myself comfortable while he did his thing to my teeth. While my mouth was full of tools, he asked, “So how’s your day going so far?” My reply came out as, “Mrrgh purr blobby noff nay blobby blobby.” The dentist laughed and said, “I was kidding, you’re not supposed to talk right now.” FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

I always feel like I'm in great danger when the dentist and their assistant (if they have one at the moment) are chit chatting away while having sharp objects and drills near my mouth. I hate it even more when they ask me questions, then get all pissy if I don't respond!!

I hate it when the dentist tries to talk to me when I obviously can't move.

I think dentists do this to **** with people. they ask questions that require long responses and watch you try to respond with that spit vacuum in your mouth.

Lol I'm trying to figure out what 15 read to make that his response. But yeah OP - Normally I just grunt or I just wait til they're done messing around, usually they don't continue to ask questions if you haven't answered the first one yet

44 OP said "slice my mouth open" which generated confusion in this young mans mind causing him to wonder, "isn't the mouth already open? WTF MY MOM LIED." That is what he was replying to.

My dentist does that, I mumble random stuff and eventually he'll know there's no point in asking questions when you don't understand the responses. :P

well, i asked my uncle, who was a nurse, and apparently if the guy was an NHS dentist in the UK then you could complain and then they'd have to check for past complaints; apparently if they've ballsed up a few thing then you can be booted out of medicine by the general medicinal council, or whatever it's called. But, he was a nurse, not a dentist. If he was private then you can still claim compensation for it, because OP might've needed stitches.

Protip: wait for the dentist to take his hands and any sharp objects out of your mouth before talking to him.

It's nothing against dentists. I just don't really enjoy having people play around with sharp tools in my mouth. Nothing personal just not something I look forward to. A dentist is a great career choice.

I intern at an orthodontist's office and they let me work with patients. I cut one of my patient's lips, I felt so bad :(

65- did they sue?
annabelle2213 0
No, the orthodontist has to ask the patients' permission to allow me to work on them before I can. She said yes and got a bloody lip. Poor girl.
