Just returning, perhaps fleetingly, to the original subject, it occurs to me that supradentulous may be an example of a recent AWAD weekly theme "Brand names that have entered the dictionary".
Supradent is a model of dentist's chair, marketed by Sabrotech:

So it occurs to me that "supradentulous" may be a derived adjective, probably meaning "laid-back", just as "hooverful" could describe something that really sucks.
