A man’s fear of needles led to a rather unconventional solution at the dentist’s office. As the dentist began preparing the nitrous oxide, the patient quickly objected, citing his inability to handle the gas. The mere thought of wearing a mask made him feel suffocated.
The dentist, understanding the patient’s concerns, offered an alternative solution. “Would you be okay taking a pill instead?” he asked. The patient agreed, thinking that a pill would be a more manageable option.
However, what happened next was unexpected. The dentist returned with a pill, but it wasn’t a painkiller. With a mischievous grin, he handed the patient a Viagra tablet. The patient’s surprise was palpable as he exclaimed, “Viagra? I didn’t know that was a painkiller!”
The dentist’s witty response left the patient in stitches. “It’s not,” he said with a chuckle. “But it’ll give you something to hold on to when I pull your tooth.” The patient’s anxiety was momentarily forgotten, replaced by the absurdity of the situation.
