The Secret Lives of Dentists is both well written and well acted. I did get a bit tired of the trumpet playing alter ego, but he does add a grittiness to the film.
This is a film that values marriage. At the end, all is not well, but there is hope. The damage done to teeth by life can be repaired. Perhaps the damage to this marriage can be as well.

ON MARRIAGE
Matthew 19:4-5 (NLT):
"Haven't you read the Scriptures?" Jesus replied. "They record that from the beginning 'God made them male and female.' [5] And he said, 'This explains why a man leaves his father and mother and is joined to his wife, and the two are united into one.'
1 Cor. 6:16 (NLT):
And don't you know that if a man joins himself to a prostitute, he becomes one body with her? For the Scriptures say, "The two are united into one."
Hebrews 13:4 (NLT):
Give honor to marriage, and remain faithful to one another in marriage. God will surely judge people who are immoral and those who commit adultery.
