Dr. Molar Whitestripe, D.D.S.
The Dentist's Office — Where the Town Talks With Its Mouth Open
Born: Third-generation McSkunkville dentistry — the cleanest teeth in any universe
Model: Main Street Practice · six chairs · magazines current
Role: Dentist, confessor, and accidental keeper of every rumor in town
Nobody hears more of McSkunkville than Dr. Molar Whitestripe, because nobody in McSkunkville can resist talking in the chair. College tuition, the Joneses' fight, who hit the jackpot at the casino floor — it all comes out between the rinse and the spit.
The teeth, of course, are immaculate — this is a town under the Clean Skunk Doctrine, where even the molars follow the law. Whitest stripes, whitest smiles.
The doctor's oath is the town's oath: everything heard in the chair stays in the chair. Mostly. Allegedly. The record reflects no findings to the contrary.
Worldwide Access — Dr. Molar Whitestripe, D.D.S. around the world
