''Say Cheese.''​

As a brain wave technologist, I often ask postoperative patients
to smile to make sure their facial nerves are intact.
It always struck me as odd to be asking this question right after brain surgery,
so, a colleague suggested I ask patients to show me their teeth.
Armed with this new phrase, I said to my next patient,
“Mr. Smith, show me your teeth.” He shook his head.
“The nurse has them.”
