A man went to an oral surgeon to have a tooth pulled. The dentist pulled out a freezing needle to give the man a shot. "No way! No needles! I hate needles," the patient said.

The dentist started to hook up the laughing gas and the man objected. "I can't do the gas thing. The thought of having the gas mask on is suffocating me!"

The dentist then asked the patient if he had any objection to taking a pill. "No objection," the patient said. "I'm fine with pills."

The dentist then returned and said, "Here's a Viagra tablet."

The patient said "Wow! I didn't know Viagra worked as a pain killer!"

"It doesn't," said the dentist, "but it will give you something to hold onto when I pull your tooth."
