Great(est) prank on my OSU buddy

Submitted by uofmdds96 on November 24th, 2019 at 8:01 PM

 19 years ago my best friend of 40 years, who is an OSU fan needed a crown. So I had the lab make me 2 crowns.  One was normal and one with a block M.  When he came back to cement it in, I placed the M one in and asked him if I could photograph it because I was learning to use this new camera. He agreed and I snapped this photo.  I removed it and cemented the real one in.  As the cement was drying I printed out this pic and handed it to him. His eyes widened and he was plenty pissed. I did show him that the M crown was still in my hand and he was fine.  One of the biggest regrets in my life was not cementing in the M crown.

Fast forward to a month ago. He broke some porcelain off of the same crown. God is great. Also he grinds his teeth like mad.  I now had a second chance and remake the crown with the Block M in my office in one visit with CEREC (google it) and cemented it in without him knowing.

I texted him after and told him to take his tongue and make sure I didn’t leave any glue by his cheek.  He responded “there is a little something there but nothing I cannot live with.”  Then I texted him the pic. He said “I know it’s not there.” Of course it is, but he feels better thinking otherwise.

I personally have one on my lower left first molar and have 3 other patients who are Michigan fans walking around with them as well.

GO BLUE! BEAT OSU!!

I think you and your friend may have inadvertently knocked the universe off its axis.

If I am to understand you correctly you took a person missing teeth - who would of course be a Buckeye fan - and you replaced the missing tooth.

Yet he remains a Buckeye with a full set of teeth?

This is a sign of the apocalypse if ever we have seen one.

Hey

Next time you want to pretend you're a dentist and put a picture of your mouth on the internet?

Don't. Not even if you aren't pretending to be a dentist.

Just don't do it.

I believe you are the gentleman that bought us all a round after Jim was hired.  You sir, are an exemplary man.

Thanks for the web address. Now I know where to tell my friends to dump their coolers! (I live in Sylvania.)

I see the dentists in your practice are split 2 & 2. I'll make sure they don't get the wrong office.

(My dentist's office is also in Sylvania, but he's an IU grad. I don't think I'll be coming to visit you anytime soon -ERRR- ever.)

Well since osu has been feeding Michigan teeth with a shit sandwich the last 19 years it makes sense to sneak an M crown in there.

forget winning them all, you should try just winning maybe one? 

i assume this is what you call fun, some schtick you like to try, but don't you think you have better use for your time down there in ohio?

Nice work!

I share my office with a guy who went to OSU for pharmacy school.  He was supposed to be working from home on Friday morning but changed his mind at the last minute.  He walked in on me taping a Go Blue banner under his chair (was hoping to give him some bad juju this week).  There he is standing there with a box of doughnuts, wondering why I’m on the floor of our office with his chair flipped over.  I was caught red handed.  It was a pretty funny moment.
