W.C. Fields stars in one of his most hilarious shorts as a less-than-attentive dentist who has a most unusual assortment of patients. First, he must deal with his daughter and the iceman, who apparently are in love with each other and then he plays a frustrating but hilarious round of golf. Back at the office, he engages in a round-the-office wrestling batch with one of his female patients as he attempts to extract a tooth. A male patient has such a dense beard that Fields is unable to find his mouth and uses a shotgun to flush out various birdlife from his patient's oral cavity.
