Funniest/Most Memorable and/or Most Interesting Moment Experienced in Dentistry:
While doing an externship in a private practice my last year of dental school, a woman, 9 months pregnant came into the office with a toothache. During her procedure to treat her pain she went into labor! An ambulance was called and she went to the hospital only to find out it was false labor. Needles to say, I wasn't prepared for that kind of excitement in the office. We were all so happy that everything turned out OK!
