Eating taffy, both front crowns lifted right off stuck in taffy, looked like a real backwoods boy, talk about tooth gap it was Damm chasm
First dental visit, 8 fillings, 2 teeth pulled out. Never missed a dental appointment since!
14 years old, going to a dentist for a filling. Questionable dental hygiene, dentist gets angry and chews me out for having a thick layer of bacteria on my teeth to the point it looks like butter. Never missed a day brushing my teeth ever since.
Until he sadly died, my dentist was Dr Smilie. He was good at his work too.
My sister’s a dental assistant (she says nurse). She’d loudly say she was ‘NURSING’ all day, until she was asked to provide medical assistance!
Got a post-wisdom tooth infection. My husband’s ex was the dental assistant – she’s in my mouth while he squirms nearby. Talk about awkward! 😅
Uncle/Dentist treating my then boyfriend, and out he plucks one of my, yes MY pubes from said boyfriends teeth LOL!!! Funny now, not back then!!!
Dentist here, had an elderly patient remove his own tooth. Got him numb, stepped out for another checkup and came back to an empty socket.
When I was 7 years old I asked the dentist for a coin after he took a teeth out as I thought he was the tooth fairy. At least he gave me a lollypop.
Got my wisdom teeth removed and ate while my mouth was still numb. Food was spilling out without realising it! Everyone had a good laugh
My son fractured tooth from basketball to face. Next day exact same scenario but tooth knocked out, after he ignored warnings, an expensive two days.
I loved having braces, with monthly visits getting me out of classes at school.
I’m sure it’s been said before, but i cracked two teeth eating a single redskin! They are evil!
Loved going in for a clean only to find out more work needs to be done 🙂
I cracked my tooth in half on a Vita Grain biscuit there is one sharpe bit of tooth. It’s not throbbing.
My dentist had to wear 4 masks because I had such bad breath as I came in after eating 3 pizzas.
Lost a filling mid-date, improvised with gum. Date noticed, laughed, and shared her dental mishap. Now married, we joke that love really is tooth and nail.
A dentist called out my name,
Paused, looking puzzled, quite tame.
“Wait, you’re not him?”
We shared the same name—
But not the same claim!
At seven, I asked my dentist for a coin after he pulled my tooth, thinking he was the Tooth Fairy. Got a lollipop instead. Fair trade!
Chemo has destroyed my mouth leaving me with bone reduction and all my teeth slowly falling out. Not a great look at 40
My daughter lost her first tooth and gave to grandpa to hold. He accidentally lost it so carved a bit off a white rock!
The dentist’s drill whirred, a familiar sound. A sudden jolt of pain shot through my tooth, a stark reminder of the importance of regular check-ups.
When I got my wisdom teeth out they got infected and I made a bowl of midori jelly but put too much midori in… needless to say it didn’t hurt for a while
Getting my impacted wisdom tooth out was wild, the dentist practically turned into a wrestler, using my chest for leverage like it was a footrest!
I nervously went in for a filling, but my dentist’s jokes and kindness transformed the experience into a surprisingly positive memory.
I lied to him
When I said I’d floss every day
I lied to him
Bleeding gums won’t go away
Return of the plaque!
Dirty!
Switching to an electric toothbrush transformed my dental health. My gum recession improved significantly, and my dentist couldn’t believe the difference at my next visit.
I got a filling for a chipped tooth. When the dentist asked me what I was eating when I chipped it, I said “the fork”.
I worked as a dental assistant. We were working on a wisdom tooth removal. Had to wear a screen guard, ended up looking like Dexter
Took my toddler to the dentist with me. I was so impressed she was being so quiet with her colouring books it was only at the end of my examination the dentist and I realised she’d been drawing on the walls! Oops!
$5 on bench top from tooth fairy, $250 from husband for firewood. 7 year old finds the $250 and yells “I love the tooth fairy!!”
I asked how long my tooth removal procedure would take. The dentist replied “depends how much you scream.”
I have fortunately not had any dental issues, but my dentist is called Dr Fang so that gives people a laugh when I mention that!
Sad story, wisdom tooth, dry socket… two weeks off work on pain killers on the couch watching Netflix so not all bad!
A knocked-out tooth at a backyard cricket match turned heroic when my dentist saved the day—and my smile—just in time for Christmas photos!
Bit into a sandwich on a date and lost a filling. She said, ‘Guess we’re really getting to the root of things!’ Still married, still laughing!
My dentist once said, ‘Your wisdom teeth are too smart to remove!’ Flattered, I kept them—and now they haunt me with occasional painful reminders.
Lost a filling eating popcorn at the movies—had to awkwardly slurp soup for a week till I got it fixed!
In for a check up. Dentist strongly urges me to go to see a Doctor for a skin checkup for a spot above my lip. Life saver. Thank God for Dentists.
I was
Nothing like hearing ‘oops’ from your dentist mid-procedure (dental implant)—one bone graft later, I’m officially part titanium and ready to chew through anything
I had a tooth extracted at 7 – my mum was asked to leave the room because she was crying so much!
Dentist said, ‘No cavities.’ Felt like I’d won an Oscar
Brushing up on dental care, I realised it wasn’t just a plaque-tical matter. It brightened my day and my smile.
Had a tooth that was ready to come out but I was too scared to pull it out. End up falling out when running and had to leave a note to the tooth fairy explaining what had happened.
Patient asked to wear their covid mask . Had mask over their nose and eyes with their mouth wide open in the dentist chair .
While eating, I felt a crunch – my tooth cracked. At the dentist, they pulled out… a popcorn kernel. My tooth? Completely fine, just traumatised.
Spent hours in hospital with my son after a molar extraction; bleeding wouldn’t stop, and he projectile vomited blood, covering nurses, doctor, and floor.
Getting my teeth checked and cleaned is therapeutic for me. Looking forward to my next visit!
New punk rocker dentist replacing all my fillings. Covered his room’s ceiling with fishing net and cute ceramic kittens. Quirky touch — definitely memorable! 😄🐱🎣
