Not a fan of the local pediatric dentist...hell, his own partners aren't fans.

Pediatric dentistry got big black eye from Frontline last year. The folks and Kool Smiles offered it up on a plate.

What kind of parent would subject a child to this kind of thing without a LOT of consultation, alternate/second opinions and very careful thought? If anyone told me my kids needed anything like this I'd be very skeptical and make them convince me that it was medically necessary and the best option.

The world really has gone mental as of late...

I also wonder what the child's diet consisted of prior to developing the symptoms or whatever brought the parents to take the child to the dentist.

Am told a lot of peds dental issues can be traced to juice/milk/whatever in a sippy- cup at night.

Does a three year old need a root canal

If the dentist needs a new country club membership, sure. Let me axe all you old goats? Did you have one??? How many of us have even had to have braces for God's sake???? ummmm not. Three boys in my family and none of us had braces, (let alone a friggin' root canal), and none of us look like we are from the movie Deliverance, geeez.
