M: I had to go get a cavity filled today.

W: Did it hurt?

M: I don't even wanna talk about it. It killed me!

W: How long were you in the chair?

M: It took quite a while, but the worst part was getting numbed 2. They had to give me 3 shoots.

W: Well, I guess you've learned a good lesson, huh. You have to take good care of your teeth.

M: No kidding. Not only can’t I stand the pain, but man… dentists are expensive. The bill is going to be humungous!

W: Don't you have a dental insurance?

M: I do, but it still does not cover everything.
