No he's not. I simply don't believe it is good for our profession to throw others under the bus. You obviously don't mind though, rock on!!!

Guys offering fishing trips to instructors in exchange for test material. Girls offering sexual favors for grades. Class meetings called to devise cheating systems on practical exams. The list goes on. I could count on one hand the number of people in my class that I'd trust to work on me or my family. There are plenty slimy people in the dental field.
Tell us where you went to dental school. I know people cheat, but it was few and far between at CWRU. This my account for your opinion.

Any modern office should have an intraoral camera - don't let him tell you his diagnosis, make him show you.
I agree with this, but some people think intra oral cameras are just a tool to make money.
It's too bad you don't practice anymore, you could be a dental superhero to defend the world against sleazy dentists.

I believe in telling the truth. That's where we differ. Sweeping crap under the rug only contributes to the problem. Calling out the bad dentists isn't throwing anyone under the bus except the bad dentists. And making people aware of them helps to weed them out.

I've said it before - LSU.

Bad dentists are going to use any means necessary to screw people, and they don't need a camera to do it. Used properly, it is one of the most beneficial tools in helping patients understand their oral health.

If it were up to me, I would be - but I can't control my health. After Katrina, I still had patients coming from as far as Florida and Texas to see me on a regular basis. Trust me when I say that my patients miss me. You won't find a more honest dentist.

Root canals are about the dumbest thing anyone can do to a tooth. Anyone who says otherwise is wrong. When a tooth dies, remove the tooth.
