Dental Joke

My aunt sent me this email and I thought all of those who work in the dental field might find it funny even though it is a little dirty............
A man goes to an oral surgeon to have a tooth pulled. The dentist pulls out a freezing needle to give the man a shot. "No way!! No needles!! I hate needles," the patient said. The dentist starts to hook up the laughing gas and the man objects. "I can't do the gas thing. The thought of having the gas mask on is suffocating me!!" The dentist then asks the patient if he has any objection to taking a pill. "No objection", says the patient, "I'm fine with pills". The dentist then returns and says, "here's a Viagra tablet". The patient says, "Wow! I didn't know Viagra worked as a pain killer!" "It doesn't", said the dentist, "but it will give you something to hold on to when I pull your tooth!!!
