verb;

the act of pulling a denton.
to achieve an ideal denton:
1. stand in front of a mirror with your camera in hand, as if to take a normal camwh-r- picture.
2. position the camera, so as to cover as much of your face/head as possible.
3. take the picture.
note: in step 3, it may help to turn on the flash. this allows for maximum coverage of the face and/or head, thus enabling you to achieve a quality denton.

if your face and/or head is entirely covered by the camera, then you have achieved a denton.
