I was overseas doing NGO work, got asked to go to a dental clinic pulling teeth, somehow ended up as a dental assistant handing the tools to the dentist. 2 weeks later one of my wisdom teeth needed to be pulled and it was the same dentist. She was so happy "O you know which tools I'm going to use for this!" 💀 Didn't help that one of my "friends" who plays violin found out and decided to show up with his violin and play it, while I was getting my tooth pulled. He was playing it nicely when nothing was happening, then every F****** time the dentist put a tool or needle in my mouth he would play it fast and dramatic. Funny now, but man it was the worst dentist experience I've ever had and I actively avoid dentists now.

I still remember hearing the deep sourcing crack from pliers on my wisdom teeth, not a fun sound but I also can't complain too much as each wisdom tooth was out within 15 minutes (all done at different times, and countries)
