Dentists in the media

In the videoclip below Dewey (Tim Conway) and Wallace (Chuck McCann) are small-town lawmen who are ordered by the governor to go undercover as prison inmates to find out where a gang of thieves have hidden their loot. While they're undercover, however, the governor dies, and because no one else knows about the ruse Dewey and Wallace are stranded in prison. How are dentists portrayed in the media? Pick up one example (movie, scene in a movie, journals, newspapers, TV, EXCEPT specialized journals and literature)and tell us about it.
