Quotes 

• Ben : Ah! Miss... er, could you...

  Dental Assistant : I've already done it.

  Ben : Done what? I haven't asked yet.

  Dental Assistant : Well, you're about to do a root canal, so you obviously need extra lignocaine for the pain.

  Mr. Henshaw : What?

  Ben : Alright, Mr Henshaw. Next patient.

  Dental Assistant : No, there is no next patient.

• Andy Banks : Well, we can catch up at dinner tonight?

  Ben : I thought we had just caught up.

  Andy Banks : So is tonight not good?

  Ben : No, sorry. Er... I have a dental conference.

  Dental Assistant : No, that's next month.

  Ben : No, the other thing.

  Dental Assistant : That was cancelled.

  Ben : The more important thing.

  Dental Assistant : You weren't invited.

• Dental Assistant : Your wife's on the phone.

  Ben : Tell her I'm with a patient.

  Dental Assistant : But you're not.

  Ben : [Realises his patient ran away]  What? What happened to Mr Henshaw?

  Dental Assistant : Curled up in the foetal position under the reception desk.

  Ben : Well, tell him he still has to pay for the appointment. And if that doesn't work, there's a broom in the cupboard - couple of pokes, that'll do the trick!
