Dental Breakdown is this odd mix of comedy and musical that you don't quite see every day. The story revolves around these five student dentists, who honestly don't seem thrilled about their situation, which is only made worse by a tutor who's, let's say, a little on the sadistic side. The pacing has this offbeat rhythm—it bounces between moments of forced cheerfulness and the grim reality of dental school life. The performances are a mixed bag; some really lean into their roles while others seem a bit lost. It’s got this quirky charm, like it knows it's not going to win any awards but still tries to entertain with some dark humor about dental despair. It's definitely a unique piece in the indie scene of late 2000s cinema.
Dental Breakdown has had a rather uneven format history, with limited releases and not much in the way of reissues. As a result, it tends to be on the scarce side for collectors, especially those interested in oddball indie films from that era. Its distinctive blend of humor and musical elements appeals to a niche audience, making it a curious find for those diving into the more eclectic side of cinema.
