      Lube and a shot glass… This is definitely a party dentist. You should ask them for a nitrous oxide tank to go.

    2. I’m really hoping a dentist (or dental tech) will show up and let us know why the dentist has lube and a shot glass.

      The looks like it’s Lube Life brand, likely a flavored option, so we know it’s edible.

      And it looks about only 75% full.

      Can any dentist weigh in if there is a legitimate, medical reason a dentist would need lube? Does it help…seat prosthetic teeth or something?

      I’m sure it’s just Medical Dental Lube, totally standard thing to find in a dentist’s office, what dentist doesn’t keep copious amounts of lube on hand?

      Open your mouth, and Pat your lips dry, then take a perfectly sterile and clean metal instrument and rub it against your lips.. it hurts a lot. The mildly sticky skin catches and snags on metal instruments. 

      You can either lightly lubricate the instruments so that they can slide around the lips easier without snagging and hurting the patient or you can have the patient put on some ChapStick.

      Fun fact from a sex shop employee: medical professionals use regular, consumer oriented lube products for certain procedures!

      I thought it was interesting when I first started in this industry and noticed all the lubricant bottles say something along the lines of “for personal and medical use”. The big one being Swiss Navy but a lot of other brands have it on the description as well! I think it’s neat because in the medical field you see so many specialized pieces of equipment you’d think that they’d have special manufacturers, but when it comes to the lubricant – it’s just what you’d buy at a novelty shop!
