Try and bite something else instead, and avoid situations where it might happen, if possible.
Also, sometimes there is the greatest urge to do something that is forbidden.
How do you deal with inappropriate urges like this?
Just say no.
One tabu i think we should all agree to keep tabu, is cannibalism.
:twisted:
PS: how the @#$% could there not be any consecuences? there would be for the dentist, in any case.
I'm assuming the majority don't like their dentist, and don't remember that the dentist is a person at the moment that the dentist is hurting them.
That's why I think some of us need to be put under general anaesthetic to have dental treatment.
But the dentist is only doing their job so it is wrong to bite them. The best thing is if you think you will bite the dentist, say you're very terrified of getting work done on your teeth and ask if they will put you under general anaesthetic.
Which reminds me, I should go to the dentist's and get a check up.
Iron Man, I had some dental treatment back in 1992 and the dentist kept telling me it didn't hurt when in fact I was feeling a lot of pain. She was really pathetic and wouldn't answer any of my questions.
Since then, I've been really terrified of going to the dentist. Luckily, I have fairly good teeth but think it is about time I get the courage up to see a dentist again. It's very expensive too.
Yes, I was a biter as a small child at preschool and the early grades. It is amazing how the biting child is always blamed for causing the trouble! I was just about the smallest child in a class of big bossy children (well some weren't so bad).
One day I bit the teacher because she fooled around with my finger painting. She bit me back about 10 times harder. I think that was child abuse but my parents just said she didn't like our religion ie. I should just forget about it.
I wish there was the equivalent of a no-claims bonus for NHS dental treatment. Seeing as I've never had a cavity, I wouldn't pose much of a burden to the NHS if they took me on. But the only way I could get NHS treatment would be to stuff myself with sweets and give myself tooth decay so I'd qualify for emergency repair work!
I don't constantly have the urge to bite people, but I had trouble resisting the urge to bite the dentist once when he was in my mouth.
I've never been able to understand why people allow themselves to get into the state of fearing dentists when tooth decay is so preventable.
And now I guess I'd better stand in the corner as a punishment for my lack of empathy. :evil:
I find it quite funny that this thread is in the Aspergian ideas forum, is it an Aspergian idea to bite the dentist?
Not my dentist, just a bite instinct. My Dad sometimes let me bite his leather jacket when I got the urge.
Ooh, how does he do his own fillings? Wouldn't he still have to drill the teeth somehow?
Maybe's he's like that doctor in Antarctica who had to operate on her own breast tumour.

My oldest son does his own fillings, he has very fragile cracked teeth don't know where those genes came from!
DIY dentistry - that's what the shortage of NHS dentists is driving people to!

Does anyone else remember the episode in the Astrid Lindgren's Bullerby stories when Olaf has toothache and Lars and Pip manage to remove the tooth by the tie-tooth-to-doorknob method while he's asleep - without him waking up?!
If your the dentist, bite block. It is a piece of rubber designed to keep the mouth open. Out of kindness you might want to warn the poor guy next time.
