I was a general dentist on a Navy ship for 2 years in 2002-2004, this was before I went back to become a periodontist. I remember wedging my feet against the cabinet and the bulkhead to keep myself steady while working. Or having to quit procedures due to rough seas. We actually had a pretty good department, three dentists, 4-5 assistants, 2 hygienists and 2 lab techs. We also had pretty nice equipment. Probably light years better than what they had in prior decades, Vietnam era, etc. Good times...seems like a lifetime ago now.
