I just got beaten up by a 5 ft 100 lb girl
-
I had to get a tooth extracted that was beyond salvation. Dentists suffer as much as I do when extracting my teeth, as several have told me that my "bones are extremely hard" and consequently my teeth are very, very difficult to work loose. Well today my dentist was a petite young thing, 5ft tall and weighing around 100 pounds. I took one look at her and thought "Oh sh@t!". But she surprised me. She turned out to be very competent. She drilled and broke the tooth into 3 pieces, since it was impossible to get it out in one piece. I really suffered through the procedure, but no more than I did in the past on previous extractions. I don't blame her for a moment. She offered to put me to sleep, but I am too chicken for that. I rather stay awake and suffer! She gave me a prescription for hydrocodone for the pain, which I picked up on my way home. So here I sit, no pain but having a nice buzz as I write this!
Get me coffee and no one gets hurt!

Went for a root canal treatment this week, but that did not work out as planned, the dentist said the canals were too narrow so I will have to go to a specialist for further treatment :(( On the positive side, it was painless ...

Better that than her 6' 6" 220lb colleague who is certain that he can "just pull it out", and ends up dislocating your jaw...

Oh man, I'm living in The Netherlands at the moment and had a similar experience at an emergency dentist on new years day. Similarly sized dentist and I had similar concerns, especially when she said "do you want me to try the anesthetic, it probably wont work well due to all the infection". We got there in the end and she told me to take some paracetamol, if I needed it later. I went home and self-medicated

Despite a close call a day or two before Christmas, where the available instruments were just long enough to complete the root canal, I've managed to get away with just one extraction and that was about 30 years ago. That ended up with the dentist half way on top of me with his knee on my chest and a set a pliers that could easily have been a car mechanic's.
