University of Pittsburgh grad. I told him I was a Mountaineer grad and he just smiled...kind of like a guy from a Stephen King movie.

Maybe best to 'get an understanding'.
Maybe start by extending a hand in his direction when seated in the dental chair.
Precisely locate the area for your 'attack'
Just before making contact with this 'sensitive' part--burst out in your most gentle but forceful voice---"Doc, WE are not going to hurt each other---are we?"

Don’t pay him!!

Laugh, but I had a very similar conversation about sports with a dentist who was doing, just a filling, about 5 years ago. Instead of the gums with the needle ,he got into the jaw muscle. Woke up with lock jaw that night, spent 7 days in hospital. Doctor team working on me said ,had I not awoke and went straight to ER, NO MORE BALL GAMES. They had pictures of needle marks way back on my jaw muscle, caused a clot that put pressure on nerve.
No BS with dentist or doctor anymore.

Big Mistake on your part.

 

[WVUALLEN]

Sarcasm is not your thing I see.

Ask how many times he's seen "Marathon Man".

Nothing Root. I responded to Allen.

Not a thing. T-Bone/Allen is insanely jealous of Ohio State and obsessed with me, so he hijacks threads with anti-Ohio State propanganda quite often.

Unfortunately, my dentist is an Ohio State grad.

My dentist was a Pitt grad as well and his incompetence almost led to my death. I wish I were joking. One day soon I'll share the rest of that story.

Sad story! Glad it worked out.

Geesh Vernon...you know how to make a guy feel comfortable! lol

Well, when I was stationed in Meridian, MS years ago, one of the dentists on base was a cute, petite little lady that graduated from Pitt.

Sorry to hear about this. My spouse's primary care physician is a Pitt alumnus.

 

[mneilmont]

My primary is a UK grad. Could that be the reason he schedules a colonoscopy in every other even-numbered year?
