The Chicago Dental Society surveyed more than 300 members to find out the strangest dental requests they'd ever received from patients.

Prosthetic fangs, gold grills, tooth tattoos - these might sound crazy to you, but wait until you hear some other requests. The answers might shock you!

* Can you give my dog braces?

* Can I keep the teeth you pull out of my mouth? I'd like to make a necklace out of them.

* May I have an emergency cleaning visit? It's my high school reunion and I need a bright, white smile to face my old boyfriend.

* Will you give me local anesthesia in my lips? I'm going in for permanent lipstick tattoos on my lips, and would like to avoid the pain.

* I just broke off my engagement. Can you prepare my tooth so that I can keep the diamond in it?

* Pull all my teeth, and just give me dentures.

* I will pay you or your hygienist to floss my teeth at my office every day.

* Can you ID this set of dentures left in the bathroom of the bar I work at?

* Please wire my mouth shut to aid in my diet.

* Can you extract my tooth without anesthesia?
