I remember thinking that The Secret Life of Dentists was kind of a gem:

"For Better or Worse" was a lovely comic for many reasons, but Dr. Patterson's experiences at work did resonate with my family. Thanks for reminding me of this gem.

Thanks,

Hermione Granger's parents (the Harry Potter books and movies) are both dentists.

John Patterson in the long-running Canadian comic strip, "For Better or Worse" is a dentist (http://www.fborfw.com/strip_fix/).

    Deadly Dentist? That was a new one for me. As a daughter of two
    dentists, I've always been bothered that dentists in the movies
    only seem to exist as another stereotype of pure evil.  I am
    curious if anyone can list movies (not documentaries) that show
    dentists in a positive light.

    Of course, it's not Friday, so maybe I'm posing this question a
    bit early.

    Glee recently featured John Stamos as a dentist.  While he may not
    have played an excellent dentist, I was encouraged by the fact
    that he was not evil.

    Thanks,
    Sandra

        Hi all,

Our vhs copy of the Nova/WGBH "Deadly Deception" got mangled. I don't see it anywhere -- is it available anywhere, or gone?
