#274: The Perio is a Croc

As a rule, alligators don’t like to go to the dentist, but Sal’s nerve pain just got to be too much. So his regular dentist referred him to a periodontist up in Boca aimed Higgins. It turn out Higgins was a crocodile, and so were most of his patients. Which is fine, Sal just wasn’t expecting it is all. Anyway, Higgins recommended a gum graft, which wasn’t the news Sal wanted to hear. He began to think about Higgins being a croc again. But he leaned back in the chair and comforted himself thinking, Hey, this guy comes highly-recommended, and he is, after all, fully licensed to practice by the State of Florida, right? Which made him feel better. Right up until he tasted the saltwater rinse.
