Dentrified
Created by: mrskellyscl
Pronunciation: den-tri-fied
Sentence: (no offense to Gloria Gaynor) At first I was afraid, I was dentrified. Kept thinking I could never live if I should open wide. But then I spent so many nights thinkin' how my gums went wrong and I grew strong, and I learned how to go along. And so I'm back, my teeth to brace, You just walked in and have no chin with that thing on your face. I should have changed my worried mind, I should have made you rinse your mouth if I'd have known for just one second you'd be drilling north and south. Oh no, not I, I'm dentrified. As long as I can rinse and spit, I know that I'll revive. I've got all my teeth to fill, I'll just take this little pill and I'll survive, I will survive -- hey, hey!
Etymology: dentistry: care of the teeth + terrified: extreme fright

Toothordare
Created by: Nosila
Pronunciation: tooth or der
Sentence: Each time Wendell went to see his family dentist, Dr. Payne, he felt like he was playing toothordare.

Dr.Payne also had a sense of humor and never failed to mention that he had a lot of pull or was trying not to look down in the mouth. His family had gone to Dr. Payne for years, and all just because Wendell's Granny had dated him. The old gal had always called Dr. Payne, brace yourself, The Leader of the Plaque!
Etymology: Play on Truth or Dare (a game where you must tell the truth or suffer the consequences)
