Talking with your dentist

[Buried 0]

so i was at the dentist the other day and i always find it odd how sometimes they want to have a conversation with you.. It seems unsusal, since most of the time there is no talking while they are cleaning my teeth. I mean how could you talk much when they are shoving picks and their hands in your mouth? Kind of odd, must be an lonely profession if you dont have a [sexy] assistant

I say "yeah" and "uh-huh" a lot. That's about it.

I've been amazed at their mad interpreting skillz. I don't stop talking just because they're scraping and polishing and poking around - and they get almost all of what I'm saying. It's pretty impressive, considering I sound like Chewbacca at those times...

you've got to ask yourself one question: 'Do I feel loquacious?' -- well do you, punk?

I've had the same dentist practically since I had teeth, so I don't find it odd. He watched me grow up and knows my whole family. We talk about all sorts of things before he starts working on me. (Of course, once he is actually working in my teeth, all I can do is grunt or nod.) I'm going to be really sad when he retires and I have to find a new dentist!

My dentist has real hotties for assistants. Great cleavages. I'm usually gassed when I go in for work. Makes fillings alot easier to deal with. The gas isn't bad, either.

Side story...

So my coworker and I are in Target yesterday on our lunch break (fun, I know). And she needed to buy a toothbrush. So there we were in the toothbrush aisle. The following is a recap - I swear to God I was on a tv commercial!!!


Kristen: Liz, what kind of toothbrush do you use?

Liz: Well, you can't get the hard one because it messes with your teeth. And you can't get the soft one, cuz it just doesn't do the job. So I get medium.

Kristen: Yeah, me too.

[KRISTEN and LIZ look at toothbrushes]

ENTER STRANGE MAN.

Strange Man: Here, try this. [STRANGE MAN hands KRISTEN electric toothbrush thingy] This is what I use. I give it to my kids to use too.

LIZ shoots KRISTEN a "who is this weirdo" look.

Kristen: (to STRANGE MAN in a confused manor) And why is that?

Srange Man: I'm a dentist. x% of dentists will recommend it to you. Best one on the market. Guaranteed.

Liz: Either that or he works for the company.


So yeah... I swear... it was scripted. I was waiting for someone to pop out and tell me I was on candid camera.

Anyway, guess you had to be there.

So Kristen didn't buy it, but I actually did. It's still charging. Don't know how well it works yet.

How much extra does it cost for gas? I've only had one cavity, and I was surprised by how very uncomfortable I was during the filling. The gas might be worth looking into.

I have heard Dentists have a high rate of suicide and substance abuse.

I think seeing people in pain and all the other things that come with the profession might get to you after a few years.


Oh yea and yes i do talk a lot. Lost of stops. She keeps on asking stuff and i keep on answerring.

My dentist always tries to have a conversation with me. I have decided that--among his other sadistic tendencies--he just enjoys watching me try to talk when he has his hand in my mouth or when my mouth is numb (or both).

I appologised and shook his hand after but i just cant control myself in that chair. PHOBIA!

It is called guerilla marketing and is used more often than you are aware of.

It is frequently used for new drinks in bars as well.

I'm not sure, I think about 60 bucks - Expensive, but it's really worth it, especially for the dentist, - - - I have a tendency to bite. Not good.

Yeah, as long as it doesn't double the cost, I'm in.

I love it, too! I broke mine, though, and have since started using one of the $4 electric toothbrushes. But it's just not the same.

Do too! And if you read my story again... I bought the damn thing. Wasn't charged enough yet to try it this morning. Worked for 20 seconds and stopped. I just got home and damnit... I'm going to brush my teeth!!!

[normiss 855]
