This morning's root canal appointment illustrated the value in keeping a supply of realistic rubber cockroaches at the ready. The endodontist told me few people had ever been able to light him up in the morning the way I did when he said, "Open wide," and found himself face to face with a large, black cockroach staring at him from its perch on my tongue. 😀 Upon hearing his alarmed yelp, the assistant looked over, and I got her, too! 😀 😀 😀 The only thing that would've made it better would have been for it to have been captured on video.

Love it. Last time I had to get a root canal, the wonderful dentist missed one root. His office was like an assembly line. Sure enough, the root abscessed and I had to lose the tooth. I went back to him, and he said sorry. Presently I have approximately 5 holes in my mouth. All of them were caused by dentists. I'm 69 years old and I will see a dentist when they do an autopsy. I only hope the doctor doing the autopsy is not a dentist. To call them professionals is ridiculous. I have never met one that was worthy of the name professional. It's really sad.

WHat?? You get your dentist all upset and then want him with a scalpel in your mouth?? Much braver than I. Maybe the hygienist first. I did however spit my coffee when reading this. I now have coffee in my nose, no roaches, just coffee.. ROTFLMAO!!

If you have coffee in your nose, then my day has been a success! 😀

@Wordmage glad I made your day successful. You made me laugh. We both win!!
