Squirrelhunter91 Posted June 20, 2007 Report Share Posted June 20, 2007 Has anyone ever wondered why dentists tend to talk to you and ask you questions that require long answers while they are working on your mouth? I had a dentist appointment today and the guy kept asking me questions about my finals/regents and school and stuff and I could barely respond. I mean don't get me wrong, it was great to see him and everything because he just had a triple bipass surgery like a month and a half ago. I'm glad he's doing good. But why does he like to talk to you while he has his tools in your gums?? Does this happen to everyone else or is my dentist just the wierdo?

buckee Posted June 20, 2007 Report Share Posted June 20, 2007 It happens to me too, and when I try to answer him, he tells me to open my mouth wider ..LOL I personally think it's their way of getting back at you for having to smell your breath, and stick their fingers in your dirty mouth.

Jeramie Posted June 20, 2007 Report Share Posted June 20, 2007 Actually our dentist is from our small town, he worked for my father in law for several years, and has been a family friend for years and years. So basically when im in there he wont shut up..... "Now spit...." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
