How did they do it?

Set to “Lean Back” by Fat Joe, this clever skit uses humor to dramatize a dental reality: patients who don’t actually lean back when the chair does. Dr. Renae plays the role of the energetic dentist, dramatically dancing and mouthing lyrics while trying to coach the patient (played by her assistant) to follow along. After several attempts and exaggerated cues, the patient finally “gets it” and leans back—delivering a hilarious payoff.

Why it worked

• The music cues the punchline and keeps the pacing tight

• Every dental professional can relate to the moment

• Simple setting, great expressions—no high production required

• High energy creates shareability and repeat views

How you can do it too

You don’t need fancy effects or lighting. Just follow these steps:

• Pick a song with a clear beat or lyric you can base a visual joke around

• Use your phone in vertical mode—no DSLR needed

• Film in your operatory with team members (you’ll get better engagement)

• Keep props minimal and focus on movement or expressions

• Rehearse the timing—especially for music-based skits

• Upload and trim right inside Instagram Reels or use CapCut for small edits

How this grows your practice

Content like this is a bridge between clinical expertise and human connection. It makes your office feel friendly, relatable, and current. When potential patients see your team having fun, it eases anxiety, builds trust, and gives them a reason to choose your practice over a cold, generic competitor. This post doesn’t just entertain—it creates visibility and emotional connection, both essential for attracting new patients in today’s social media landscape.

Team Tip:

Let your assistant shine too. Including your team in content not only keeps it fun for staff—it builds loyalty with viewers and positions your practice as a friendly place to visit.

Tech Tip:

Use Instagram’s built-in music alignment tool for syncing your lip-sync or movement with the beat. No fancy edits needed—just rhythm and realism.

BUCKTOOTH Tip:

Let your team be themselves. Patients respond to authenticity, and your assistant or hygienist might just be the breakout star. Building a culture of fun creates content and strengthens your staff dynamic.

Stay tuned—our countdown continues!
