Nice Chompers

So this was funny-weird at the dentist. 

The dental hygienist comes in and does the cleaning.

Ultrasonic cleaner, scraping, polishing, flossing, rinse–all sort of routine. 

Next the dentist comes in–looks this side, that side, bite, bite again, looks some more. 

Then sort of out of the blue, the dentist goes to me:

“You got some nice chompers!”

Ah, never quite heard anyone say that before or quite the way this dentist said it.

Uh, a little strange sounding and feeling a little uncomfortable. 

I go out and tell me wife about this weird thing. 

And I start laughing and going…

“Doctor, you got some nice chompers there too!”

Somehow the way I said it, we both cracked up laughing. 

I’ll never think of going to get my teeth cleaned at the dentist quite the same way again. 😉
