Casual slang for two-thirty in the afternoon, as in Tooth-Hurty.
Can be used to arrange meet-ups at two-thirty in the presence of others who you do not want to attend. However, it only caters for a very small region of time.
Bob: Alright, see you at chinese dentist.
Phil: Nice one.
Alex: What? Where's the chinese dentist?

A mythical person who is said to exist in remote areas of China, but has never been sighted by a reputable source. If existent, he would fix teeth and make them look better. The evidence just simply isn't there to announce he's real.
Mr. Li was excited. He rushed into his home and shouted at his family, "I just saw him! I saw the chinese dentist! He's real, and he gave me a stick with bristles on it!! Behold this magical brush!"

The name given to the time 2:30 this is because if a Chinese person says "two-thirty" it sounds like they're saying "tooth hurty".
It's Chinese dentist time.

Very obscure slang/substitute for swearing in frustration or anger.
Origin:
HBO television series
Mr. Show with Bob and David (1998 season 4, episode 5: It's Perfectly Understandable)
Sketch: Pallies (A Goodfellas parody, edited for television)
David Cross turns to Jay Johnston and yells (with terrible over-dubbed editing):
"Well you's can both grab one of my *books*,
you mother*father* *Chinese dentist*"
before shooting Jay in the head.
According to the Season 4 DVD commentary, years after the show ended, cast member Paul F. Thompkins had overheard someone talking on a cel phone in a bar utter the phrase "Mother Father Chinese Dentist!"
When asked if she was a fan of the show, her reply was "What?"
