Ok ok, Friday night, the wife and 2 of the kids are shopping, I have the middle one getting a prime rib ready to smoke and finish on the charcoal for a family xmas tomorrow.
Thought I'd give you guys some dental time. Going thru buying another practice right now, dealing with banks and shit is a nightmare, hopefully it will work out. Anyway, due to the weather and shit we only worked 2 days this week, but saw the same amount of pts, so it was hell weak at my office. Had a lady come in needing a tooth extracted. No big deal it looked like after peeping the xray. I go in, introduce myself blah blah blah. "I'm a severe dental phobic" she says, "I have to have N20 and crank it up". You bet, no problem. All goes well, tooth comes out, no issue. Once we get it out, she asks if I"m done with it. "Yep, it's all out, no issues" "Are you ok" I asked. "Yeah, felt it right at the end a bit, pissed my pants a little" "Oh, I'm sorry, do you need to use the restroom" I asked. "No, I wore a diaper just incase". LOL. She wore depends. |

Do you ever find yourself wishing that people had fangs, just to make you feel more exotic in your work?

Just a heads up, they’ll want you to collateralize everything you’ve ever owned. See if you can get them to pull anything out eg your main practice. Don’t sign a personal guarantee. If you want me to look over anything give me a shout. |

One of my buddies I went to dental school with got really into veterinary dentistry. He goes to the zoo (or he did haven’t talked to him in a bit) and works on some of the animals. They did root canals and gold crowns on one of the tigers canine fangs one time after it had broken them chewing something and was in pain. It looked pretty sweet to have this tiger woth big gold teeth. He did extractions on a lot of the bigger animals like bears and camels. He did mostly stuff on canines in the vet office he would work a day in. I dunno that I’d pay 1500 bucks for my lab to get a crown but I paid double that for a hip replacement 8 years ago so I can’t say never My buddies little boy was a vampire last year for Halloween so he brought him to the office before and I light cured some tooth colored filling material on his canines to make them vampire teeth. I didn’t bond it so it just popped off whenever he was done but it looked cool |

How often does someone ask to trade sex for dental work?
I mean, you guys are a major ripoff. |

Getting a bank loan is like pulling teeth.

I can do one easily. The other is a pain in the ass. I really wanted to use my local bank, they've been good to me with little stuff. But damn, I don't have 50k in cash laying around to put into this. I get why they want that, but shit. |

Post xmas update.
Was only in the office 3 or 4 days over the HOlidays, was a nice break. Back to the grind (lol grind) today in full force. Making a denture for an old dude here in town, wants a gold canine in it. Told him I could do it, but it would cost more. Got it done a while back, turned out pretty cool actually. Had an issue this morning. I was knee deep in a root canal in the back and I heard some yelling up front. Stuck my head around the corner to see what was up and my receptionist was getting yelled out by a pt that I worked on once or twice. Apparently we sent him a bill and he wasn't happy about it. "I've spent enough money in this office to pay for one of those ****ing dental chairs, this is ridiculous blah blah blah". I calmly walk up there, pull up his chart that has all the fees he's paid and stuff. Dude has paid a grand total of 184 dollars to me in this office. I print it out, show it to him, ask him how much he thinks one of those chairs in the back cost. He gets more upset and yells. I tell him not to worry about paying that 43 dollar bill he has in his hand it's on the house. And by the way, you also need to find another dentist, we wont' be seeing you here anymore. "But I have a toothache right now I need to have worked on, what do I do?" he says as he realizes I'm not gonna **** around with his bullshit. "Way I see it, you've got 2 options. Pay your bill, apologize to my receptionist for treating here like that for doing her job, sit down, shut up and wait for them to call you back. Or pocket the 43 dollars and get out, it's up to you". He wrote a check and I pulled another tooth over my lunch break, he paid and thanked me. I told him that was the last time I'd be working on him, it would be better in both our interests if he went elsewhere. He apologized again and said he had never had a dentist as good as I was (yeah, breaking my arm patting myself on the back) I said sorry and good luck. I'm not dealing with that kind of shit. |
