Not really, but I did get a good laugh out of it. I love having my teeth cleaned and we both go about every 4-1/2 months. I'm not really fond of Dr. Nick and tease Bruce about being an easy target for his hard sell. Over the past year, he's talked Bruce into a new crown and having several teeth refilled. This morning while my hygienist was working on my teeth, I could hear Dr. Nick talking to Bruce. He was telling Bruce that he needs two new crowns. I even lost track of what I was supposed to be doing trying to listen in on their conversation. I heard Bruce tell Dr. Nick on the last crown he had tried to charge him an extra $200. I could hear Dr. Nick trying to explain what happened. Bruce then told him, "Fool me once, shame on me! Fool me twice, shame on you." In the end Bruce told the good doctor that he'd think about the new crowns and Dr. Nick promised Bruce he would give him a discount on the crowns if in the future he decided to have the work done. On the way out, Bruce scheduled an appointment for a tooth filling. While Dr. Nick was checking the hygienist's work, he suddenly found that Bruce had a cracked filling - something the hygienist had missed. He gotcha Bruce!!!
Dr. Nick and his dentist wife really don't spend much time on me - I've told them flat out that I'm not having any work done unless it's a broken tooth or a filling falls out!
