THE DENTIST contains several shots of nudity, including bare breasts. In addition, several scenes in the film have fairly strong sexual overtones, some of them quite subtle. We also see fellatio being performed by a woman on a man - though not in great detail. Additionally, a woman is sexually molested by the insane Dr. Feinstone in a prolongued dream sequence.
Several gory close-up in-the-mouth shots of patients being dentally tortured with various different dental instruments such as drills and burrs. We see teeth drilled into and destroyed, and gums and tongues pierced in graphic, bloody detail. A severed bloody tongue and a dead dog are also seen in the movie.There is also a rather violent scene in which a person is repeatedly slashed with a knife and blood splatters the ground several times.The gory moments are fairly few and far between, but still graphic in nature.
Very occasional. Rarely strong.
We see several characters smoking throughout the movie.
Although there aren't really any sudden "jump-scares" in THE DENTIST, there are several suspenseful scenes which could prove distressing for the weak of heart or young and impressionable children.
