| A: | Hey, Gary, great to see you again. Please have a seat. So tell me, what seems to be the problem? |
| B: | Thanks, doc. I've got a really bad toothache! I can't eat anything, and look, my face is all swollen. I think it might be my wisdom tooth. |
| A: | Well, let's have a look. Open wide. Hmm... this doesn't look good. Well, it looks like you have a cavity and your crown is loose. We'll need to put in a filling before it gets any worse, and the crown probably needs to be refitted. I'm going to order some x-rays. |
| B: | Is it gonna hurt? |
| A: | No, not at all! Just lay back and relax. |
| A: | Ok, spit. |
