How to Draw a Dentist
Draw a dentist in 12 easy steps, about 9 minutes. Free, with a printable worksheet.
Each picture adds one red line. Draw that line, then scroll to the next picture. Rub out any dashed helper lines at the end. First up: head and ears.
Step 1: Head and ears
Near the top, draw an egg head. Add a C ear each side, starting and ending on the head.
Tip Leave most of the page below for the body and legs.
Step 2: The face
In the middle of the head draw 2 eyes, a little nose under them and a smile.
Tip Give each eye a black dot with a tiny white shine.
Step 3: Scrub cap
Draw a cap over the top of the head, just outside the head line, with a curve across the forehead.
Step 4: Neck and coat
Draw 2 neck lines under the chin. From them draw a long coat with round shoulders, down to the hips.
Step 5: Coat front and badge
From each neck line, slant down to a V, then straight down to the hem. Add a tooth badge.
Step 6: Long sleeves
From each shoulder draw a long sleeve down to a cuff. Bend the left one in at the elbow.
Tip Rub out the coat lines inside the sleeves.
Step 7: Mitten hands
Draw a mitten hanging from the right cuff. Draw another pointing in from the left cuff, with a thumb bump.
Step 8: Big toothbrush
From the left hand draw a handle up to a rounded head. Add 3 bristle bumps on its left side.
Step 9: Trousers and shoes
From the coat hem draw 2 trouser legs down to a shoe each. Add a ground line under the shoes.
Step 10: White coat, teal cap
Leave the coat, sleeves, badge and bristles white. Colour the cap and the shirt between the lapels teal.
Step 11: Peach skin, pink cheeks
Colour the cheeks pink, then the face, ears, neck and hands peach around them. Leave the eyes white.
Step 12: Toothbrush, trousers, shoes
Colour the toothbrush blue, the trousers grey and the shoes black. Go over your lines and your dentist is done.
