Poor dentists. The prevalence of dental fear amongst people of all ages and educational levels leads to dentists being unfairly stereotyped in popular culture as sadistic torturers. Expect the Depraved Dentist to wear a permanent Slasher Smile, usher a patient into his (it's nearly always "his") examining room filled with rusty, scary-looking instruments, most of which are from the 16th century, and a huge honkin' drill, and wreak havoc on the helpless, screaming individual's mouth (and possibly other body parts). If his patient comes to him with a toothache, he may not care about pulling some other teeth that were perfectly good. Sometimes the dentist doesn't practice tooth-torture, but does creepy things to them when they're under anesthesia. Sometimes (unrealistically) also practices orthodonture, a similarly feared profession in Real Life. The trope arises from that fact that until the early 1800s, teeth yanking was usually under the purview of (usually badly trained) barbers, who generally took the "brute-force" approach towards dental surgery. Also, the use of anesthesia was not commonplace until after WWII. As a procedure that most people would have undergone and lived through, a distrust of it obviously would have developed. The French even use the expression "mentir comme un arracheur de dents" ("to lie like a tooth-puller") for Blatant Lies, referencing how some tooth-pullers claimed to be able to perform their operations painlessly, despite the fact that, as was mentioned, anesthesia was rarely used. Unfortunately, the trope has been Truth in Television - there are cases of dentists who have done unnecessary work as a scam (usually on either poor child clients for Medicaid money, or alternately on rich, heavily insured patients), dentists who have sexually assaulted patients under the influence of anesthesia, and some dentists that are just so incompetent at what they do that they have killed or seriously injured patients in their care and practiced anyway until stopped by regulatory boards or sued out of business. The good news is that the aforementioned regulatory boards and public listing of malpractice actions (and now, with the internet, patient reviews) makes it far harder for one of these to successfully operate for years without some hint of the danger. Compare Deadly Doctor, Mad Doctor, Morally Ambiguous Doctorate, The Tooth Hurts, Torture Technician, Attack the Mouth. noreallife |

Hermey from Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer is a subversion. He is ostensibly a heroic character who helps in the defeat, or in other words, the Bumble becoming a good guy. He does this by ripping out all of his teeth with pliers. | |

The Far Side: In one strip, a boy is waiting with his mother in a dentist's waiting room. Through a glass panel in the door, he sees that the dentist is actually a monster whose human face is only a rubber mask. Another strip had a dentist father keeping a chair in his house's basement so he could give his son an "appointment" as punishment. Another shows the patient with mouth agape and full of instruments, while the dentist says "Just out of curiosity, we're going to see if we can also cram this tennis ball in there." |

Rather more successful than Yankem (though not yet as much as Kane) is Dr. Britt Baker DMD, a mainstay of the women's division in All Elite Wrestling and former AEW women's champion, who uses the Mandible Claw as a finisher to attack the nerves in her opponent's mouth. She started out as a face, but turned heel soon enough, and after knocking one of Yuka Sakazaki's teeth out she taunted Yuka that she should have sent her a bill for it. Interestingly, Britt is a real licensed dentist when she's not wrestling, with a practice in the Orlando area. | |

One of (many) recurring background characters in Sluggy Freelance is Nana Avarre, the "angsty dentist" who combines stalking, Goth, and dentistry into one dangerous package. She likes to work without painkillers, but she still manages to get patients to return because her waiting room has arcade games. She was also one of Riff's old flames. So terrifying is she that when Torg was attempting to sabotage Leo, then a boyfriend of Zoe's, he gave him a coupon for a free cleaning from her office. Which actually went to Kent, whose screams were heard outside the clinic. They're dating now. It's not because he's masochistic, just incredibly dumb. | |

In season 4 of BoJack Horseman, Todd's latest business venture consists of dentist clowns. Unfortunately, Yolanda from the Better Business Bureau points out problems with his idea since 1) not all of them are licensed dentists and 2) they are too frightening to be retooled as an entertainment venture. Todd eventually releases the dentist clowns into the woods...where they contract rabies. | |

In Louie, the title character visits a dentist that specializes in treating people with odontophobia. After giving him an excessive dose of nitrous oxide and an unspecified pill, Louie has a series of hallucinations ending in the dentist sensually inserting a banana into his mouth. When he suddenly snaps out of the dream state, the dentist is seen hastily zipping up his fly. | |

Dr. Wolfe in The Simpsons episode "Last Exit to Springfield" When Ralph Wiggum claims to brush regularly, Wolfe says, in a Boris Karloff-like voice, "Why must you turn my office into a house of lies?" and proceeds to scare him straight with the horrific Big Book of British Smiles. He then terrifies Lisa and Marge with an over-the-top computer simulation of what Lisa will look like unless she gets braces. And when Wolfe does outfit her with braces and headgear, Back-Alley Doctor style, she reacts like the Joker. And if that wasn't enough, in the episode "Hail to the Teeth" it was revealed he wasn't a real dentist, but a periodontist gone rogue. | |

An odd subversion from G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero- Cobra's resident Mad Scientist, Dr. Mindbender, was once a perfectly nice and normal orthodontist. Then he started to research ways to reduce pain during dental procedures, using brainwave stimulation. But when he tested it on himself, it messed his mind up and turned him into a madman. | |

Supposedly, he was once a "dentist to the stars" (as in, his patients were celebrities) before his license was revoked (his whitening solution caused the President of the United States to lose his teeth). He seeks revenge by using tooth-altering methods that turn patients (and his henchmen) into freaks. | |

Dr. Farb in Roger Corman's The Little Shop of Horrors. Unlike his counterpart from the musical, Orin Schrivello, Farb is not quite as sadistic and has a slightly smaller role, but still finds enjoyment in brutalizing patients. He has a magazine named "Pain" for his patients to read in the waiting room. The page quote, incidentally, comes from Orin's Villain Song from the musical and the 1986 film spin-off. | |

Igor Peabody, from the Problem Child series of films, was the principal of an orphanage in the first installment and the principal of a school in the second. In the third, already showing a severe lack of sanity from all the headaches Junior has caused him, he becomes a dentist, and vents his frustration on his patients, but specially Junior, with whom he has a bone to pick. Peabody's sadism is made explicit in the second film, when he reveals why he switched jobs in the first place — he hates kids. | |

Dr. King Schultz from Django Unchained is a possible subversion. He is a former dentist who turned to bounty hunting, but is also one of the most moral and compassionate individuals in the film. However, this is a Quentin Tarantino film, so "most moral" really doesn't mean that much. Lest we forget, he shows no hesitation in gunning down a man in front of his young son for money (although the man was a thief and a murderer.) | |

Metalocalypse plays with this trope, with Nathan fearing that his dentist will try to kill him. He eventually gets over it, and instead manages to befriend him instead, realizing that he actually does need a friend. He still kills himself after the credits roll when out hunting with Nathan later, after commenting on how he appreciates their friendship. | |

Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay had, in its first edition, an adventure called The Dying of the Light. The Big Bad was called "Zahnarzt", which is the German word for 'dentist'. Sadly he wasn't one, but the name cannot be anything other than intentional.For German players, the name was a spoiler, as the adventure was mostly a treasure hunt for one of his teeth. | |

MAD: In a Don Martin MAD book, Fester Bestertester goes to see a dentist who's rather enthusiastic about the prospect of having to drill. Although the preparation causes poor Fester a great deal of pain, when the drilling itself starts he remarks that he doesn't feel a thing. "Of course not," says the dentist, "but heaven help you if it were to slow down for even a second." Fester then reveals that he hasn't come for a check-up after all, but to deliver a note which says that at 2:30 P.M. the dentist's electricity will temporarily be turned off. Guess what time it is... In a Dave Berg "Lighter Side" strip, a patient asks how much it'll cost to have a tooth pulled. When the dentist tells him, the patient protests that that's way too much for only twenty seconds of work. "We can make some sort of agreement," says the dentist with an evil grin. "I'll pull it slower!" From the parody of the remake of "Invasion of the Body Snatchers," one of characters suspects a dentist is a pod person because, during a root canal, he drilled into a live nerve and didn't even smile. |

She clearly enjoys tormenting her patients, telling them that she’ll break them into smithereens, threatening to kill them if they complain or report her, and sporting a big Slasher Smile as she begins a tooth extraction. Arco, who needs said tooth extraction, is understandably reluctant to let Pandagraph go poking around in her mouth. | |

In Seinfeld, Jerry attends an "adults only" dentist who doesn't allow kids in his office, keeps copies of Penthouse in the lobby, takes hits of nitrous oxide before beginning procedures, and routinely swaps nurses with his fellow dentists. After waking up from an anaesthesia induced coma, Jerry is under the distinct feeling he's been violated. Later on, his suspicions are confirmed. In another episode, the same dentist inflicts pain on Jerry after finding out Jerry was telling "anti-dentite" jokes (You know what the difference is between a dentist and sadist?

In the 1976 spy movie Marathon Man, former Nazi concentration camp dentist Szell (Laurence Olivier) tortures an American secret agent's brother (Dustin Hoffman) with "oral surgery" in order to find the location of some precious gems, while repeatedly asking him "Is it safe?" Hoffman's character has no idea what Szell is talking about, which adds to the dental horror. This scene from Marathon Man is parodied in Hot Shots!. |

In a Nodwick story, a dentist commissioned the heroes to recover a magical pillow that had been made for a child, which would summon a tooth fairy to place coins under it in exchange for a tooth. His goal was to find her and all the teeth she collected, so he could make them into perfect dentures and make a fortune (and if he could find her stash of coins, all the better). While he was more selfish and greedy than he was evil, this plan led him to make a deal with someone he shouldn't have, the God of Evil, Baphuma'al, who would become the Big Bad of the strip. | |

The friend's visit behind the door of the examining room is played for laughs. He comes out nursing his jaw after having a perfectly healthy tooth pulled. Lawrence's visit is much more sinister.

When said ex-cop finds out what happened, he confronts Dr. Bloom and his assistant Teri, who proceed to beat him to death and dump the body. Later in the episode, they kidnap Monk with the intention of torturing him to find out whether the guy they plan to fence the merchandise to is being investigated.

In the end, Pete ends up at the dentist by accident, and he removes the tooth painlessly. The horrific drill-like thing that so terrified Pete was actually a watering can used on the dentist's potted plants. | |

In Dan Vs. "The Dentist", Dan's dentist seems overly friendly at first, but is later revealed to be a sadistic supervillain who deliberately damages his patients' — who are children — teeth, forcing their parents to make repeated and expensive visits. He also plans to implant pain-inducing mind control devices into the teeth of world leaders so he can rule the world. It doesn't help that the dentist is voiced by Mark Hamill, who also voiced the Joker, who as mentioned above invoked this trope as well. | |

Willy Wonka, in the 2005 film adaptation of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, reveals that his wacky obsession with sweets is a rebellion against his father (played by Christopher Lee), an obsessive dentist who forbade all candy and made Willy wear horrible braces and headgear. Though their eventual reconciliation shows that he was just an overprotective dad, rather than a genuinely demented individual. Also, young Willy apparently did have some real problem with his teeth, since old Wilbur actually recognises his son from his unique dental condition decades later. | |

Dr. Bender, the dentist in The Fairly OddParents!, bullies children by stealing the toys that end up on his yard, saying they don't deserve them because their teeth aren't as good as his and his identical son. He even has denture bear traps. Naturally, his own teeth are fake. He's at his worst in "Shiny Teeth", where he's shown to be willing to painfully remove children's teeth for no reason at all. | |

In one Sherman and Peabody segment of Rocky and Bullwinkle, Leonardo da Vinci can't paint the Mona Lisa because Mona can't smile, due to a toothache. They find a dentist quickly, but his methods "leave much to be desired", as Peabody explains. After the dentist fails to extract the tooth with a cord attached to a bow and arrow (resulting in poor Mona being pulled through the air with it and wrapped around the Tower of Pisa like a tetherball) he takes her to the top of a cliff and tells her to leap off and land on her face. Fortunately for Mona, the guy offers to demonstrate himself first. | |

Orin Scrivello of Little Shop of Horrors, from whom the page quote is taken. This leather-clad hoodlum literally gets off on torturing patients, using nitrous oxide not as an anesthetic but to get himself high. In The Movie, he meets his match in masochistic patient Arthur Denton, whom he eventually throws out of his office in disgust. The roles were memorably played by Steve Martin (seen in the picture above, taken from a different scene) and Bill Murray respectively. A great bit is the scene with the Braces of Orthodontic Overkill in the film adaptation, whereupon it is implied that he removed the jaw of a kid. He also violently abuses his girlfriend. | |

Soil: New Town's council president is a dentist/orthodontist. He's an obsessive neat-freak techno-savvy voyeur pedophile rapist whose victims are basically every boy who didn't want to be awake during a cavity for the past decade, has the whole town under a CCTV net, used the footage to incite the rest of the council to terrorize one family who (probably) didn't do anything, tortured one victim's mother with a drill during an exam, and killed a bunch of cats as a warning to a homeless woman who offended his sense of "purity". He later learns the hard way not to mess with people's mothers; meanwhile his victims have unknowingly banded together to destroy the world. | |

Bogleech has the short story "Doctor Dementist", where the narrator finds himself the prey of a mechanical monstrosity whose very vague understanding of dentistry will absolutely not stop it from drilling into your teeth. Interestingly, Doctor Dementist's demeanor comes off as alien rather than sadistic. According to the author, it likely used to be a regular dentist once, and still tries to be one despite having somehow turned into a terrifying monster. | |

On Good Eats, Alton eats a whole olive...and breaks a tooth on the pit. He is then seen going to the dentist...whose assistant is his most prominent Sitcom Arch-Nemesis, W. (The scene is also a Shout-Out to the aforementioned Little Shop of Horrors.) The dentist lectures Alton on the importance of pitting olives before eating them, and Alton whines about the olive-pitter being a unitasker. The dentist replies, "Well, maybe if you had used that unitasker, I wouldn't have to use this unitasker." (Referring to a tooth-extractor.) W then explains that a good olive-pitter will be almost exactly like a tooth-extractor...and a really good one will have a little groove for the stems of cherries. | |

Neal's dad is his dentist. Once he has him in the chair, Dr. Schweiber starts telling him he didn't understand what he saw and asking if he's mentioned it to anybody, and ends up taking about how lonely you get when you're older you get lonely and start to feel you've been missing something in your life… all while Sam lies there froglike with a big plastic thing in his mouth. | |

The remaining panels are all from the inside of his mouth, as Frank comes in and tells him to grunt to answer his questions, and goes to town with pliers and the drill when the don doesn't answer. An earlier story had the Punisher himself go to a dental office, where he is attacked and nearly tortured and killed with the dentist's equipment by gang members, who he eventually turns the tables on. |

Judge Dredd: In an origin story, it is revealed that the father of the man who later became Judge Death was an extremely depraved dentist. Not only did he enjoy paralysing his patients instead of anesthesizing them, then tearing out every tooth they had, but he'd also murder them mercilessly to cure them of "brain worms". A healthy role model for the good Judge, no? Dave "The Orthodontist" Duchese was a Serial Killer who kept the teeth of his victims as souvenirs. |

Diary of a Wimpy Kid: A Played With example. Greg sees his dad's dentist, Dr. Salazar Kagan, as one of these. From what we can see, Kagan is a regular dentist, if a bit stern and annoyed with Greg; a large part of Greg's first impression of him comes from the fact that his dad switched him from the kid's dentist he had a crush on to Kagan without telling him beforehand. However, because Greg accidentally bit his finger while he was checking his teeth, Dr. Kagan retaliated by prescribing to Greg's father that he constantly wear dental headgear that he clearly doesn't need in order to humiliate him in public. Luckily for Greg, his brother Manny gets a hold of said headgear and puts it on himself the next day, which is what fully convinces Greg to never wear it again and thus sparing himself from being embarrassed. | |

Dr. Boris Habit is the antagonistic proprietor of the smile rehabilitation center known as "The Habitat" in Smile for Me. His cheerily puppeteered public service announcements grow increasingly threatening and ominous as the player progresses through the game and restores the "Habiticians'" smiles without consulting the good doctor. His threats culminate in a goofy endgame villain monologue where he has the protagonist strapped to a dentist's chair and pulls out most or all of their teeth. | |

In Tokyo Little Shop, the "anime" continuation of Little Shop of Horrors, there was Dr. Haru, who is based off of Dr. Farb from the original 1960 movie, who eventually retired to become a surgeon. A biker named Samekiba Orin, based more or less on Orin Scrivello, becomes the new dentist shortly after. | |

Sgt. Frog: In episode 10, Keroro gets a cavity, and Kururu checks him out, showing an inordinate fondness for banging on the tooth in question with a dental mirror. It turns out that Keroro's cavity (and cavities in general) is being caused by a powerful race of alien invaders...who are the size of bacteria. Robo-Keroro makes a Heroic Sacrifice, letting the rest of the team escape, and activates his "secret weapon"... which happens to be a bouquet of flowers and a few fountains sprouting out of his head. Kururu then activates the real secret weapon. Robo-Keroro is an Action Bomb. Poor Keroro (the real one) gets his mouth nuked, which blows out all his teeth, destroying the Karies base. Luckily, Keronians can regrow teeth at an amazing speed. Kururu caused Keroro pain, tricking him into causing the same thing himself. The guy loves causing others pain and misery. |

Sailor Moon: In The '90s anime Usagi and Chibi Usa express fear of the dentist because they describe the only dentist in town as sadistic. They are more then happy to run off to the new, fun dentist in town only to have it turn out to be a trap by the Amazon Quartet. There's a short extra in the manga in which Usagi, Mina, and Chibi Usa decide to visit the hot new dentist for their cavities - who is secretly a minion of a ghost who gains power from cavity pain. |

Dexter's Laboratory: Subverted in an episode of Justice Friends, when Krunk has a piece of potato chip lodged in his tooth and Major Glory refuses to let him go see a dentist. After watching Krunk be subjected to various unpleasant and unsuccessful methods to correct the problem, Valhallen simply takes him to the dentist, where the chip is removed painlessly in a few seconds. Played straight when Major Glory is forced to go to the dentist himself at the end of the episode, but only because he refused to go to regular check ups and thus had lots of cavities. | |
