Today, I went to the dentist to get a tooth filled. The nurse just finished taking my info when the doctor came in and started drilling. Through my chorus of screams he realized he'd forgotten to numb me. His only response was, "Guess I forgot to numb ya, huh?" while giggling. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Same thing different taste
Today, I was at the dentist getting a cavity filled. As she's drilling into my tooth, I feel the drill slip, and then she quickly stuffs gauze into my mouth. She nervously laughs and says to me "Wow! You must really be numb!" FML
5 Yelp stars
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
No pain, no gain
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 the dentist to get a filling. Instead of giving me Novocaine, my dentist decided he was going to use a special new paste on me while he drilled. It didn't work. FML
Oops
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
Uncomfortably numb
Today, I went to the dentist to get a hole in my tooth filled. After the dentist had injected the anesthetic into my gums, she realized that none of the electrical equipment was working. She sent me home. My entire right side of my face is completely numb and swollen for no reason. FML
Today, I went to get some teeth pulled. I had Novocaine in my gums and lip so I couldn't feel a thing. When the doctor is pulling out the last tooth, he sneezes and pulls the tooth out. He looks in my mouth and I hear, "Oh, shit..." I now have stitches in my mouth. FML
Power grid
Today, I was at the dentist's and she was hands deep in my mouth with a drill, when the power for the whole block shuts off. For 3 hours, the dentist had to keep shooting me up with shots to numb the horrible pain. FML
Gummy
Today, I had a toothache and applied some numbing gel to soothe the pain. Too much came out and made my whole mouth numb. A man came into my work, thought I was making fun of his lisp, and stormed out really upset. He later called to complain about me. The boss just called me to his office. FML
Today, I went to the dentist to get a tooth worked on. I got tongue-tied and instead of asking if they could anesthetize me, I accidentally asked if they could euthanize me. FML

You should have kicked him in the crotch to see if he had numb nuts, or just was one.

56 - Where have you heard that? The few doctors I know have INFINITE respect for vets. I've never heard anyone down-talk the profession. It's like being a normal doctor except all your patients have different anatomies, potential diseases/abnormalities, they can't tell you any symptoms that aren't readily apparent
RedPillSucks 33
You do realize that a vet has to be familiar with a wide variety of anatomy while human doctors only have to be familiar with one (maybe two, if you count babies)

Should have smacked him. "Guess I forgot to control myself".
nieldan 8

@#4 My three year old baby cousin did this exact thing! She punched her dentist in the face and waddled as fast as she could out of the office & into the waiting room. Her mouth was filled with cotton/sponges, blood on the bib, and everything. The dentist didn't numb her before the procedure and she was too young to speak for herself, so she made a break for it. Haha. :)

If the nurse was standing there,tell him that they'll be paying for the filling,or you'll be contacting an attorney...while giggling...

Is it classified as a "nurse"? I know where I am from we have dental assistants, if they called themselves nurses they would be laughed at. And I don't recall ever seeing a nurse at the dentist.

why does this somehow remind me of jerry seinfeld's dentist? After jerry pisses him off of course hahah
neeni88 23
Actually, this reminds me of the dentist in Finding Nemo - you know, P. Sherman at 42 Wallaby Way, Sydney.

I think OP was yearning for an es-cah-pay

@#93 I will never forget that address for as long as I live. Thanks Dori.

It doesn't matter to them; as long as the procedure is still done properly, they make profit. Some careers can rob you of your ability to empathize...

Sir, my hat is off to you ... one of the few roles I have seen Steve Martin in and liked.

You should've slapped him and see if he would still giggle after that

I bit my dentist once, yet he still laughed. It was depressing. I was hoping to cause him immense pain.

Threw my chorus of screams? Are you a ventriloquist OP? I Geuss so.
FlowerMama 20
They don't block your throat in any dental procedure I've heard of, so I see no reason why OP wouldn't have been able to scream, even if it sounded a little muffled through the dentist's hand in his mouth.

"Haha, I just committed malpractice. Let's laugh about it so you won't sue me."
