Default Because the dentist may be a bear, or as the Romans used to say......

What does the poet mean by " Because the dentist may be a bear, or as the Romans used to say, only they were referring to a feminine bear when they said it, an ursa,".Its from "This is going to hurt just a little bit" by Ogden Nash.
