Sorry, I know this doesn't have much to do with your story there, but your post reminded me of it. I met my new dentist two weeks ago, he said I looked like an English teacher. As a creative writing major, this was a nice compliment.

Learn the proper numbering system of the teeth and discuss them that way and he’ll think you’re a genius. It was perceptive for him to identify you that way but dentists do have the advantage of studying people closely. I should finish my master’s in Eng but even if I did nobody could guess from my appearance which is like an old truckdriver which is not wrong.
