If you've got a good, slightly crude, sense of humor, then you'll appreciate these ads for Digital, a photo retouching software.
The "Perfect images for a not-so-perfect world" ad campaign by Leo Burnett, Brazil features two images, side-by-side, the left being the original, and the right the digitally altered one.
One ad features a condom, another shows a man and a woman holding shopping bags in the original, and in the altered, both hold beer.
The third features a patient with his mouth open in the dentist's seat, but in the original, the dentist is a pretty average looking female. The tampered version, however, features what you might imagine a porn star to look like clad in a doctor's uniform, after being doused with water.
If dentists really did look like this, they'd have no problem making their patients' jaws drop!
