Dentists
My current dentist is called Mr Stiff.
Back when I was at university though, I had enormous pain in my jaw one morning - so bad I went as an emergency case to the uni dentist.
He took one look at the back of my mouth and said, "Ah, wisdom teeth. Impacted. They'll have to come out."

a dentist told me a secret
The last dentist I went to (~8 years ago) was commenting on my very healthy teeth, and I said something along the lines of, well I do brush regularly.
That's when he told me that dental problems are caused by genetics, and brushing actually doesn't have much to do with it. But it does freshen your breath.
