Friday Wisdom – Dentists

Posted on 03/08/2024 by Andrew Reynolds

I drove Heather to the dentist today and my cleaning appointment is in a week so dentists are on my mind this week. Here’s everything I know about them:

My dentist says he has patients who brush their teeth religiously: every Christmas and Easter.

My dentist asked me to open up, but I told her, I didn’t know her that well.

I’ve always been told to put my money where my mouth is, so I got dental implants.

If you give a child 25 candy bars and they eat 22 of them what will they get? Cavities.

My dentist won the dentist of the year award. They gave him a little plaque.

What do you call a tooth who went to Oxford University? A wisdom tooth.

What do they call a bear with no teeth? A gummy bear.

Did you know the sell teeth for a dollar? Yes, buck teeth.

I heard about a dentist who planted a garden. Six weeks later he was picking his teeth.

What’s another name for a dentist’s office? A filling station.

I took my cellphone to the dentist — it has bluetooth.

Remember, you don’t have to brush all your teeth. Just the ones you want to keep.

    They gave him a little plaque. That one made me snort.

    I am phobic about dentists. As a kid, our local dentist who was subsidised by the government to look after kids teeth, didn’t ever use anaesthetic, although I’ll bet he claimed for it. He was locally known as The Butcher because he was rough as guts.

    Thanks for making me think of dentistry as funny. I usually think otherwise!

    You reminded me I need a new dentist. Mine has no sense of humor.
