Dentist

The other day, a gentleman went to the Dentist's office to have an abscessed tooth pulled. The Dentist pulls out a needle to give him a numbing shot. 


"No way! Please - needles! I can't stand needles", the man says.
"Ok", answers the Dentist "I understand, some people have that problem".
The Dentist begins to hook up the laughing gas and the man noticing what
the Dentist is doing, quickly objected. 


"I can't do the gas thing either. The thought of having the gas mask on
gives me a feeling of suffocation"!


The Dentist then asks the gentleman, "Well, do you have any objection
to taking a pill?" 


The man thought for a moment and answered "No objection, I'm fine with pills". 


The Dentist then excused himself as he went to his supply room.
He returned and offered a pill and a glass of water and tells the man,
"Here, take this. It's a Viagra tablet". 


The man was surprised and, nearly at a loss for words, uttered in amazement, "Wow! I didn't know Viagra worked as a pain killer too!"


"It doesn't", said the Dentist, "but it will give you something to hold on to
when I pull your tooth".
