One of my 'most memorable' experiences happened this year. A fellow
came in and the first remark was that he wanted his teeth extracted
and a full set of dentures. The guy was in his mid forties and had a
lot of calculus, minor bone loss, gingivitis, and one 'bad' tooth that
should probably be extracted. Nothing else that was not easily
treatable.
He was insistant that he should have extractions and dentures. I tried
to assure him that I did not want to argue or cause trouble, but that
his
teeth were not ready to throw away. He would actually save a lot of
money
(as well as still being able to eat).
The conversation deteriorated and I was basically a son-of-a-bitch for
wasting his time since I wouldn't obey his wishes.
That may not be the worst, but it's the freshest on my mind.
