Hello WriteUpCafe lovers 🙂
My name is Klironomou Ioanna, and I'm a dentist in Greece.
I have been reading various articles from the WriteUpCafe community, mainly on how to promote my dental office website, and one of the tasks popping up was guest posting.
Then I was trying to find a topic relevant to the community and post it here. I'm not a marketing person, so I thought to compile something funny in regard to what I do.
Below is a post with mainly a table with movies that have funny scenes involving dentists, and details you can check on the imbd link next to them.
It took me some time to make it, I hope you enjoy it
