[Mark Knopfler]

I have been studying to be a dentist and hate other people's teeth. What is wrong with them?

Reckon you'll get a plaque when you qualify?  Don't let it go to decay if you do.

Filling your time wisely I see.

You should make lots of jokes about 'I'll fill your cavity hen' and then hit the right-wing grift circuit saying you got canceled after being struck off; it's very lucrative and doesn't involve having to poke around folks' gobs.

The three dentists I know personally are all alkies who are divorced.

Each to their own but, notwithstanding the money on offer, I just couldn’t do 30/40 years repetitively fixing peoples teeth.

Once you’ve  mastered it - realistically a few months/couple of years after qualifying maybe - where do you go? Where’s the next level skill you aim for?

Fella I know sued his dentist when it turned out that he was removing loads of (poor) folks’ teeth, when it wasn’t needed, so he could get the money off the government.

My lecturer took someones teeth out and made toes grow where the teeth used to be.

Getting other more junior dentists to do it for you while you kick back and drive about on a ferrari with your shirt unbuttoned too far.

Hope you at least warn them that it’ll only be a little pr*ck.

I've been three fucking years without being able to see a dentist, so I'll maybe send you a PM to experiment on me if this pain gets any worse.
