Raising the dead is one thing but where would Jesus have got all the modern dental treatment technology from? For example, did anyone make dental drills in those days? And where would Jesus have found a source of electricity to power one?
Why would God (in a human form) need a dentist or any form of modern technology? He created the universe, walked on water, calmed a storm, fed 3000 people with three loaves and three fish, restored the dead back to life, but he can't fix his own teeth? We're in "What does God need with a starship?" territory. I think this attempt to make the Christian Jesus gritty and realistic has backfired a bit with this, God Jesus ought to have been pretty buff.
