The Dragon Dentist (龍の歯医者, Ryū no Haisha) is a 2017 two-part anime directed by Kazuya Tsurumaki (Neon Genesis Evangelion). In the realm of dragons, war is raging between two neighboring nations. In this conflict, a dragon plays a crucial role, fought by a treaty tied on the side of the one nation and battlefields in rows rubble and ash. But such overpowering creatures as dragons have a devastating weakness: their teeth. To ensure that they do not suffer harm and are not eaten away by the caries mushi, creatures that regularly form in its mouth, the military was placed under a special unit of volunteers who only care for the dragon's teeth - the so-called Dragon Dentists.
