After Cecil the lion, this dentist has a brilliant message for new patients

The reputation of dentists around the world has taken a knock in the past month or so.

But one Arkansas practice has found a novel way of winning customers back...

The Hagerty Family Dental put the sign up outside the practice in Russellville to distance itself from Minnesota-based dentist Walter Palmer, who made headlines around the world after apparently shooting Cecil the lion in Zimbabwe.

A picture of the sign was uploaded to Imgur with the caption: "A dentist in my hometown always keeps something humorous on his sign. This is the best one yet!"
