Latex Gloves
A dentist noticed that his next patient, an elderly lady, was looking very nervous, so he decided to tell her a little joke as he put on his gloves.
"Do you know how they make these gloves?" he asked. "No, I don't" she replied. "Well," he spoofed, "there's a building in China with a big tank of latex. Workers with all sizes of hands walk up to the tank, dip their hands in the tank, let them dry, then peel off the gloves and throw them into boxes of the right size."
She didn't crack a smile. "Oh, well. I tried," he thought. But five minutes later, during a delicate portion of the dental procedure, the patient suddenly burst out laughing.
"What's so funny?" he asked. "I was just picturing how condoms are made!" she said.
