The ornamental design for a dental instrument, as shown and described.

FIG. 1 is an upper perspective view of a dental instrument embodying the new design;

FIG. 2 is a right side view thereof, the left side view being a mirror image thereof;

FIG. 3 is a top view thereof;

FIG. 4 is a bottom view thereof;

FIG. 5 is a front view thereof; and,

FIG. 6 is a rear view thereof.

FIGS. 1-6 show features of a dental instrument in broken lines. These features are shown for environmental purposes and do not form any part of the claimed design. The broken lines immediately adjacent the solid line portions of the design form the boundary of the design, with the broken lines forming no part of the claimed design.
