Anecdotes
The real-life serial killer dentist, Glennon Engleman (1928-1999), was not the inspiration for the story of the film. The idea for the movie came from Mark Amin, and was written by Charles Finch, Stuart Gordon and Dennis Paoli. However, Corbin Bernsen had played a character inspired by Engleman in Beyond Suspicion (1993), which has nothing to do with this movie.

Gaffes
The light equipment can clearly be seen in Dr. Gibbs glasses a few times.

Citations
Dr. Alan Feinstone: I am an instrument of perfection and hygiene, the enemy of decay and corruption. A dentist. And I have a lot of work to do.

Générique farfelu
Lead Assistant ... Shea "Blood Guy" Clayton.

Autres versions
In order to get a "Not under 18" rating in Germany, the German version was cut by nearly two minutes to tone down the violence in most of the death scenes. The uncut version was later released on DVD unchecked by Laser Paradise; however, due to the "glorification of violence," the movie later got confiscated and outright banned entirely across Germany in 2010. Only in October of 2024 was the banishment lifted. Days after the banishment was lifted, the FSK granted the uncut version of the movie a "Not under 16" rating through re-examination.

"Pain has to be managed"

After seeing this and almost getting physically ill during the scene with his wife strapped in the chair, I watched the Dentist II thru scrambled cable.. :-) (ran across it by chance..). Bernsen is much more humorous in the sequel.. Will there be a 3rd movie?
