That's why God made blenders and baby food.

Funny that nobody wonders when you need to replace brakes, blades, tools, water heaters due to wear and tear.

It blows my mind how ignorant people can be. The dental IQ of general population is closed to 0. Yes your teeth wear, brake, chip, decay, fall etc etc....

I have dentists in my family. I greatly respect the profession and yes there are some crooks like in any other profession

New guy dentist is just doing his job. Old dentist guy probably not motivated.

Your post comes across as condescending and a personal attack.

I think the problem is that he had a trusted dentist that did things a certain way, and the new dentist does things differently, and it's concerning if/when you don't understand what's going on, the same as going to a mechanic or Dr or anyone else.

I have no doubt that there are some dentists and doctors that work like lawyers or mechanics, and I'm sure that there are good ones that do what is needed (which may sometimes seem like the folks that are trying to make money for unnecessary treatments). I'm also sure that there are some that either through apathy or because they are doing things the old way or based on old info that don't do enough. If you aren't an expert, it can be difficult (and concerning) trying to navigate through these.

Maybe the fact that you've got dentists in your family means that you're more in the know than most folks which gives you insight that most folks don't have. If you didn't, would you just be one of the folks that you're calling ignorant in your post?
