A young man trails a pretty girl into what seems an ordinary office, only to discover it’s a musical dental practice. Chorus‑girl nurses attend the many male patients, and the girl he followed is the dentist herself. She gives him anesthetic gas, and he drifts into a surreal dream where the dentist and her nurses elegantly dance on the ceiling.
