Wanted: Your dental practice horror stories

It won’t be long until it’s Halloween, that annual celebration of all things creepy, crawly, and downright spooky. While many scary things have happened and will happen on October 31, it’s a sad statement that scary things happen in dental practices throughout the country every day. As a dental team member, we know you’ve witnessed plenty of things that would make our skin crawl … so we want to hear your best horror story.

Maybe it was a nightmare patient. Maybe it was a nightmare doctor. Maybe it was another team member. Maybe it was some infection control protocol that wasn’t exactly up to par. Whatever it is, we’re giving you the chance to tell us about it.

Just click here to head to our survey where you can tell us your deep, dark secrets from the crypt … er, dental practice. All we ask is that you tell us what state you witnessed this act that sent shivers down your spine. We’ll compile your stories into the October 30 edition of Modern Hygienist for everyone to see (think of Vincent Price’s laugh from Thriller here).

So go ahead, click here and tell us your best creepy story. We’re up for it. We’re not (too) afraid of the things that go bump in the night (or dental practice).
