My brother has bad teeth. This, coupled with a lack of a dental plan, and a sense of adventure, has led him to experiment with at-home dentistry. So far he has experimented with packing aspirin in a hole in one of his teeth, and removing a bad tooth. Yes. He pulled one of his own teeth. He wouldn't give me too many details, other than he did not go the "tie a string around the tooth and tie the end to a doorknob" route, and he did have to go to the emergency room, presumably for infection.

But both of these are not as bad as a one-time coworker of his, a female construction worker who also decided to pull out one of her bad teeth. She decided to get drunk as a form of anesthesiology, which unfortunately impaired her to the point where she pulled out the wrong tooth.

Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to go floss the teeth I want to keep.
