“No way! No needles! I can’t stand them!” the patient exclaims.
The dentist then reaches for the nitrous oxide, but the man immediately objects.
“No chance! I’m not doing gas either. Just thinking about the mask makes me feel like I’m suffocating!”
The dentist pauses, then asks, “How about taking a pill instead?”
“No problem at all,” the patient replies. “Pills are fine.”
The dentist hands him a pill and says, “Here’s some Viagra.”
The patient, surprised, asks, “Wait, Viagra works as a painkiller?”
“It doesn’t,” the dentist replies, “but it’ll give you something to hold onto while I pull your tooth.”
