Dentistry is an essential profession. It’s also one of the oldest.
While the first recognized dentist lived around 2600 BC, the general field of dentistry dates back to around 7,000 BC.[1]
Dental knowledge and treatments have come a long way since then — for example, until the 1700s, even dental professionals believed that worms hidden in your teeth caused decay![2]
Today, advanced treatments like same-day implants are the norm.
Whether your dental team is learning new techniques, practicing dentistry in a shared office, or hanging out after office hours, we have more than 70 team names for dentists and other dental professionals to choose from.

How to Create a Great Dental Team Name
Dentistry is a serious field that requires a lot of skill, but that doesn’t mean you can’t have fun creating your dental team name.
If none of our options above strike you, come up with a unique name of your own.
Keep the following tips in mind to formulate a great team name for dentists:
- Use humor with standard dental terms. Humor goes a long way when it comes to lightening up technical dental terms and creating team names with them. Even the most uncommon dental terms may work as team names if you add a fun, random word to accompany them.
- Find out what motivates your team. You may want a team name that’s completely unrelated to dental terminology. If so, you can create one from a word or phrase that’s motivational to your team. Think of your favorite inspiring words and phrases — the mantras that keep your practice running smoothly. You can even ask your team for suggestions or call a vote to decide on the best name.
- Create puns. Puns always make popular team names for their humor and creativity, striking that perfect balance between making you cringe and making you laugh. You can look up some dental puns and use them for inspiration or make up your own. Get creative and have fun with it!
