Red's Dental Dilemma

Red’s Dental Dilemma is the 30th episode of the animated series Fraggle Rock, which aired on CBS in November 1988. It is the only dentist episode in the Fraggle Rock universe. It is similar to Dental Hyjinks from the 1984 animated series Muppet Babies, and the title is similar to Dental Dilemma, the American version of A Dentist of Terror PallaPalla’s House from Sailor Moon, which aired on Toonami in 2000.
== Plot ==
Red has to go see the dentist after receiving horrible cavities from eating junk food from Junior Gorg.
== Trivia ==
* The dentist is named Dr. Salinski Fraggle in the episode
* Inside Red’s mouth when she visits the dentist, the uvula, teeth and tongue have faces on them when the dentist drills and cleans her teeth. It is the third time in an animated series where parts of the mouth have faces on them, the only two being The Lollistops from Chowder and Mr. Brush from Sesame Street, another Muppet production from Jim Henson.
* The inside of Red’s mouth when she visits the dentist when the dentist cleans and drills her teeth is similar to the inside of Sylvester’s mouth from the Looney Tunes episode I Taw a Putty Tat and the inside of Bubbie’s mouth from The Marvelous Misadventures of Flapjack.
* This is the second time a mouth cam from the Fraggle Rock universe is used, the first time being in Meet Dinky when the Fraggles look at the inside of Dinky’s mouth to see if he has cavities on his teeth or not, with footage being reused from An Apple A Day when the Fraggles check Dinky’s tongue if it’s still sore
