Interesting case for you guys today.
Patient came in, hadn't been to the dentist in a couple years. No real issues, needed a filling or two and a cleaning.
Asked if I could do the fillings today while he was here, I had an empty chair in the back so we got it all set up. Did the fillings, no issues. After we're done, he says "wait, the teeth are still in there I thought you were pulling them?" I told him, "no man, just needed a couple small fillings"
"Oh, awesome, I didn't think you had pulled them very much so good to know". His wife called after and said he told her he thought he was having all his teeth pulled and dentures made.
I dont think he was paying attention during.....well anything.
