That sounds like a bad day. Glad you got through it. They should give you a discount at least.

If I have to have a tooth pulled, it's oral surgeon time.

Look at the bright side, if you have your demise in some horrible conflagration, you will be easily identifiable as per your dental records and give comfort and solace to your loved ones.

That may be the most Jewish thing I've read in quite some time.

In 2006, I lost a crown - second molar on the bottom-right. Tooth broke off. Had it extracted. In fact, I posted about it on TNCR (Zetaboards version). Once extracted, it was going to be another $2000 or so for implant, etc.
Thought, "I'm 56 years old. Do I REALLY need that tooth? Nah." I never had anything more done to it, and I didn't starve.

Guy that was our dentist for a while worked at the dental school at the U.
He did forensic dentistry, and was involved in the plane crash at O'Hare back in 1979.

Wow @Copper what a day. Hope you had good numbing during all of that extraction twisting. I've been there and just the idea (and the pressure) is not fun.
Please tell me you used the old dad joke, of "Hey Doc, will I be able to play golf well after this?"

My favorite thing to say at the dentist: "OK Doc, let's just get this straight. We're not gonna hurt each other, right?"
