My definition of "dentistry":
Patients ask questions & then whatever you tell them they disagree

I felt this

[Dental Humor @dental_problems]

A guy described his tooth aches every time he walks.....
🤔 (I'm listening, go on)
"It's like an impaction pain, when my heel hits the ground my tooth aches. Is that weird?"
A little, yeah 🤷

I'm THAT hygienist that discloses everyone under 16 yrs old & will make you go brush with a manual toothbrush if there is heavy plaque

[Dental Humor @dental_problems]

You may notice hygienists always ask patients what they do for a living.....
We're looking for a way out 😝

Pet peeve alert
Don't stand at the counter & complete your new patient paperwork

Esp you people who like to make comments about each question...
Do you like the shape of your teeth? Uh what a weird question, why would ask that?
Bc some people don't like the shape of their teeth!

The only people who turn down their "goodie bag" are the ones that need to use it the most 🙄

I ask my dds for hyg exams with one-liner post it notes. For example...
" Holy mother stain!! I need an exam please" or
"sorry I faked laughed at his joke before the punchline, hyg exam rm #1, thanks"
I like to prepare her before she enters the op 😉

That's one way to get rid of your gum before your cleaning

👨: Hey babe! How was your day?

👩: Go run your hands under water & put latex gloves on. That sums up my day 😂😂

[Dental Humor @dental_problems]

Patient opened text message as we're talking and I totally just saw that nude pic he got 😲

[Dental Humor @dental_problems]

Patient: I'm sorry, it's like torture to be here

My thought: you're telling me!! I'm here every day 🙄
😁

[Dental Humor @dental_problems]

The SRP I got my hands on today!!!! All of you would be jealous!
An assistant assisted me just so she could watch 😂

[Dental Humor @dental_problems]

Every once in awhile I sure do love a slow day at work 🙌🙌

[Dental Humor @dental_problems]

A mom told me she brought her kid with her to her appt today bc she has been too sick to go to school.

My response:
"want to be my assistant? Here, put on these gloves and mask" 😁😂😂

Rule #639: too sick for school/work, too sick for dental appts. Stay home!
