What are some great extracurricular activities that would impress the or look good in my dental school interviews? This is a serious question, so please-only serious answers.

I agree with DDSY, Snahster, and tooth decay. ... I'd also suggest looking for an activity that requires manual dexterity. There's a specific section on the AADSAS application that asks you if you've been involved in any activities that force you to make use of your hands in a skilled way.
An extracurricular activity involving use of the hands in a skilled way? Im puzzled. Any suggestions on that?
I mean, I assemble and paint model airplanes as a hobby and that involves a fair amount of manual dexterity but I wouldn't consider that an "activity"?
The best extracurricular activities are not based upon what looks good on paper; rather, it will be those activities that you have had the most passion for. As a result, you will do more, take more responsibilities, and most of all, you will enjoy talking about your activities so much during your interview, your natural enthusiasm will impress the interviewer.
I brought my painting/drawing and the figure paintings/models I did (22mm) to my interviews. I think that had an impact.
