Well, off to a great start this am.
First patient was an ortho patient, changed out her ligatures, no biggie.
Second one was an emergency patient with bombed out teeth everywhere. "Which one hurts the worst?. Well, none of them are worse but whatever you think".
Ok, that tells me nothing. But lets see what we can figure out. Tap around and find one on the bottom that's in bad shape and hurting. Ok, lets start there.
Meanwhile, I have 2 other chairs full with hygienist in one cleaning a patient and the next one waiting to get anesthesia so we can do some fillings.
I go to give the guy an injection to numb him up on the lower and he absolutely sounds like he's having a stroke and an orgasm at the same time. Yelling, moaning, screaming, moving around and kicking. I didn't even inject any anesthesia and he's losing his mind.
I calmly pull the needle out, take my gloves off and walk out. The rest of the office is just wide eyed and scared now.
Give him a card to go get put to sleep at the oral surgeon and he's pissed because I can't do it here.
Good lord.
