Dentist and Patient

A man went to a dentist for tooth extraction and first inquired about cost.

Dentist said it’s 1200 per extraction. The man thought it was too much and asked about cheaper methods.

The dentist said: Yes, it can be done without anesthesia and will cost only Rs. 300, but it would be very very painful.

Man said: Ok Doctor, do it without anesthesia.

The dentist removed the tooth without anesthesia and during the entire procedure the man sat quietly, even smiling a little.

The dentist was not only surprised but was quite impressed and said: I have never seen such a brave patient like you. I don’t even want my fees, here, instead take this Rs. 500 as a reward, you’ve taught me such a powerful lesson today about mastering one’s pain and feelings !!!

In the evening he met his fellow dentists and told everyone about his amazing patient. Out of all doctors, one doctor jumped up and shouted: ” That rascal first came to me… I gave him anesthesia and asked him to wait outside for half an hour ! After half an hour when I called him he had left !!!!”..
