Hold still!

By toothache - This FML is from back in 2009 but it's good stuff - United States

Today, I had my wisdom teeth pulled. There was a cyst behind one of them, and the dentist decided to extract it - except the Novocaine didn't reach that far back. I raised my hand like they said to do, and the dentist looked at me writing in pain and said, "No, you're fine." FML

You survived to write about it, you're fine. But seriously, you should have socked him in the face.

I went to get my wisdom teeth out, and there was a "complication" and the oral surgeon accidentally broke my jaw. My jaw was wired shut for 6 weeks - from several days before Thanksgiving to New Years - and I was on a complete liquid diet for that time. FML

Oh frack! I was put to sleep when I had my wisdoms pulled. I was seeing dancing hippos on the walls when waking from surgery... :>

To Post # 41... It IS true. I had all 4 of my wisdom teeth, plus a tooth the wisdom teeth removed at once... and I was wide awake. I go to the dentist on Monday, and I'm not looking forward to it.

i woke up in the middle of having the wires that secure your jaw shut for 2 months when you break it ripped out... its pretty hard to talk being semi drugged with a mouth full of metal and all...and aparently this anethesiologist sucks at his job because my eyes half open and all the grunting i was doing gave him no inclination that i could feel all of it... awesome thing is ...the day i got my jaw wired shut happened to be my birthday morning

HAHAHAHA OMG im sorry but i just find this hilarious cause when i was getting my wisdom tooth removed the EXACT same thing happened!!

once when i got a root canal cuz i cracked my molar, the guy does all the numbing stuff and then went to do something else to prepare and the nurse was trying to set stuff up in my mouth. she spent the first fifteen minutes trying and then going "oops" or "dammit" or "shit" then the doctor came back and looked in my mouth and went "holy shit! F**K! quick we need to fix that! omg!" after everything got sorted out (they had to take everything out and start over) he started operating and everyonce in a while he would jab something and i would do the whole arc-your-back-in-pain thing and he would respond "whoops. i guess it hurts sometimes when i do that" the next time he did it, i wrenched off the armrests of the chair

yeah, dentists are usually assholes. When I tried to politely explain my discomfort to my last dentist (the water from that drill thing wasn't even running, so I could SMELL my tooth being ground up) she told me "this is why dentists have the highest suicide rate of any career." FML, right? I got a new dentist.
