Dentistry
When you go to a dentist, and they massively overcharge you for a basic cleaning, but also tell you that one of your molars is 'cracked' and 'dying, if not dead' you'll probably take it with a grain of salt, especially if you then check with another dentist who says there is only some minor damage from past cavities.
That makes sense, right? Disregarding the suspiciously expensive analysis from the dentist who seems to be trying to get you to pay excessive amounts of money?
I thought it made sense.
Sure, the tooth felt kinda weird, and I'd recently experienced some issues with all my teeth from having a sinus infection bad enough it made my teeth shift from the swelling and shrinking of the flesh in my jaws.
Sure, there was a point where the tooth in question shifted enough that I ended up biting it painfully, only for it to settle down again over the next day or so, and go back to feeling only slightly weird.
But surely I can't have a broken or breaking tooth in my mouth and not notice it! Surely I'd feel if a tooth was dying/dead!
Yeah guess who just swallowed about a third of a molar and needs a near-emergency tooth extraction to pull the remaining tooth out sometime soon?
I'm just glad it apparently is dead, and therefor not causing horrendous pain by being a literal broken tooth in my mouth.

“Please! Just don’t take me in there!”
Ah! Dentists! Such wonderful people who help care for your teeth. But for some reason they are also the most scariest people to me.
I've had a history of visiting dentists which included a whole lot of pain and very poor results, which has made me so terrified of visiting them.
I remember one instance in particular from that terrifying period of my life which makes me burst out laughing even now.
I was in the 6th grade I think, one of my molars had turned bad and i had to undergo a root canal treatment - which of course is very painful and takes a long time. If something goes wrong the tooth maybe removed.
The clinic my mother took me to was quite small, a small waiting room and one bit wider cabin which was also an operating area and the consultation area.
I was so scared that even when the dentist just waved his hand in front my open mouth, I would anticipate pain even though he did nothing. Which is hilarious now that I think back. To my shock the affect of the local anesthetic that the dentist injected stopped working just a few minutes into the process!
I could do nothing but scream! Scream as if to raise demons from hell! As expected the adults did think I was being dramatic and tried to pacify me to no avail. A couple of nurses and my mother held me down and the dentist operated on my teeth among my intolerable screams and shrieks.
I can just imagine the reaction of the people in the waiting room, I'm pretty sure half of the kids waiting there peed their pants after hearing my screams - "what horrific experiments do they do in there?! Mama! I wanna go hoommee!" And "I promise I'll brush my teeth every day, twice a day or even thrice a day! Just don't take me in there!! Pleeeaasee!!"
As it went on, a couple came in with their son who was a lot younger than me. I was silent when they came in as the dentist was telling them something until a nurse directed them to a chair to talk. Once they sat, the dentist focused his attention back at me and started poking my teeth with one of thosr needle things...
I let out the most terrific scream that probably no one had ever heard before. The couple and their son had these scared expressions on their faces, the boy clutched his mother so tight looking at me with those scared little eyes.
I don't remember much after that but I'm pretty sure they picked another dentist. Of course the dentist, nurses and my mom were very upset at me. But honestly i still remember the pain.
Either way it was awkward, shameful and embarrassing at the time but now that I think of it... I can't help but laugh.
This incident always reminds me that whatever we go through may seem pretty hellish at the moment, but those things will always change or we can atleast make peace with it. Maybe someday whatever we thought was bad can make us laugh and brighten up our mood.
