Would you say your teeth are now down to the wire?

Some people can't appreciate this type of dental humor--I consider them our molar opposites.

You know, I had a good filling about this conversation.

It's too early for this kind of talk, save it for two-thirty

No, he means two-thirty. Maybe that's an exclusively British joke? (One that doesn't really work in text; you're supposed to say "two-thirty" as "tooth-'urty".)

Dupre

It's not a pun if you don't use the pun words i.e. "tooth hurty"

Klendathu

Not my fault that none of you can speak the Queen's English. Cor blimey guv'nor, apples and pears, RICKAAAAAAAAI!

Fun tip:

A dentist may refer to your '2-3' which happens to be your left upper incisor.

It goes 1 for upper right quadrant, 2 for upper left quadrant, 3 for lower left quadrant and 4 for lower right quadrant (yours). The specific tooth is then numbered from the middle, so your right lower wisdom would be 4-8.

At the dentist next time, say "My 3-6 is hurting something awful" and see how they react.

That’s the European method of tooth numbering iirc. American Dental Association (and UK I guess) starts upper right with your wisdom tooth being “1” and counting to the other upper wisdom, which is 16. Tooth 17 is then your lower left wisdom and counts all the way to the right side again for 32. 

We Americans are annoyingly contrarian. 

Rangor

What are they gonna do if you've had a tooth knocked out?

Tahquil

I’m surprised the American system isn’t something like : 1. 2. 3.4/5ths. 70. -4. OrAnge. Freedom tooth 1. Squuuuuuuuuaaaaaaaaeeeeeeeeek (this is how I imagine a bald eagle sounds). 8z

That is amazingly weird.

Minifie

I live in a theocracy and my power is still challenged! 

Oh wait, I read that wrong: I live in a theocracy and I’m mentally challenged!

I don't know what method my dentist uses, but when I had my checkup this week they just said "upper/lower left/right 1-8".

I thought you meant ice cream.

Nyneve

Piquant quaver-shaped gemstones running down the cocobolo bass drone dance the fine line between luxurious and gaudy, the resulting shards of refracted light flickering over the silvery hide bag with the instrument's movement. The clouded mouthpiece is a single length of hollowed crystal, swirled through with trapped bubbles during its creation. Imprinted on the chanter, the pale silhouette of a kilted piper stands out clearly against the handsome wood, matching the ivory ferrules. Contrasting sable suede protects the bagpipes' seam, and braided silver cording connects all three tenors, culminating in a festive tassel.
It weighs about 11 pounds.
It bears the distinctive mark of Nyneve.
It will reset to you.

You blow on a set of prismatic bagpipes, and a prismatic barrier forms around you.

You are now wearing a set of prismatic bagpipes.

@Nyneve the third person for the bagpipes is so obnoxious. I love mine and glad there’s a second set around now.

I assumed (what crazy dentist would give Oxy to a 14yr old for braces? ), sorry.. sardonic humor in txt fotmat .  It is just weird to me to hear Tylenol lumped in with a term I only ever hear regarding narcotics.
