Not to mention the constant harassment about upcoming appointments. E-mails and phone calls. I feel like I need a restraining order.
I wonder how much dental practice is evidence based. I wonder how many of their recommendations are better for them than me? Why does it seem every client needs a night guard and ever child needs braces?

The free market is sorting itself out in Calgary. Eventually all these bad dentists will be out of jobs. If you don't want to be taken to the cleaners it is your responsibility as a consumer to inform yourself about the costs of specific dental procedures.
i don't want to pay no stinking tax dollars to spendshi so he can put psychoactive chemicals in our water supply, no thank you!
