“I’m so furious” — Paul Rudd reveals why he’s still holding a grudge against a “terrible dentist” from 20 years ago

From captivating fans as Ant-Man in the MCU to making viewers laugh out loud in F.R.I.E.N.D.S, Paul Rudd, 55, has made his mark as a popular star and successful actor. From comedy to drama to action, he has tried it all.

We have seen Rudd discussing a lot of things, but has anyone spotted him ranting? Rarely. According to People, in a recent conversation with The Wall Street Journal, the actor directed his ire at a particular dentist. He visited the dentist during 'his late 20s, early 30s' and had an unforgettably miserable experience. Although he has forgotten his name, he clearly remembers the incident. Paul Rudd recalled:

"This guy scr*wed up my teeth so badly. It’s one of the things that I carry around. I’m so furious. It’s the only time I ever went to him."

Paul Rudd recalls his scary appointment with a "terrible dentist"

Recalling his visit to the dentist, Paul shared how he never had to wear braces.

"I always had decent teeth, and I never had braces."

However, he went for a check-up in his late 20s or early 30s, and he feels it would have been better if he had never met the dentist. After his visit and examination, the dentist shocked the Cluless actor with bad news. He said:

"You got six teeth that had cavities and I gotta take out these fillings and put in white fillings. And he goes, 'On this one, you also gotta do some preventative stuff.' And he had told my sister [Mandi Rudd Arnold] she needed to do it, too."

Listening to the dentist's words, Mandi was determined not to get the treatment done. She reacted:

"No way am I doing that."

However, Paul was optimistic and underwent the necessary procedures. Unfortunately, the results prove Mandi was right with her instincts as the dentist messed up the star's teeth.

While chatting with the outlet, Paul Rudd left a message for his dentist.

"If he’s reading this, I hope he knows he’s a terrible dentist."

Even though the Death Of A Unicorn actor is known for being a nice guy, he does not agree with this remark. Rather, he follows a few basic norms to respect others, be punctual, and be kind.

Here's his secret:

"I don’t think I’m particularly nice. Just try and be polite. Try and respect other people’s time. Show up on time."

Paul Rudd also advises:

"Don’t be a d—khead, and then that’s it."
