Iowa dentist creates art with syringes

An Ames, Iowa, dentist recently proved that dentists can create a perfect work of art -- and no, we are not talking about the perfect restoration.

Art Staniforth, D.D.S., squirted colors onto a green canvas using a collection of dental syringes -- otherwise used to clean out holes left behind by extracted molars -- and his creation won him first prize in the 23rd annual Iowa Exhibited show, reported the Des Moines Register.

The winning painting was titled "Habanero." Dr. Staniforth is also exhibiting another piece titled "Nightmare" at the show.
