As a dentist in my early 60s I am not as sensative about this subject

as I was in my younger days. Truly doesn't matter to me since I am on the backside of my career.
Just curious.
Do you consider your dentist a "doctor", or he is simply "your dentist" ???

I consider dentists as doctors as the have achieved/received a doctorate of dental sciences. They can prescribe medications. And if I’m writing one a letter or email I’m addressing them as Dr.
But if someone gets shot or has a heart attack, I’m still calling 911

I call him Dr. Whatever but in my mind he's a dentist. Not just a dentist, but a dentist.
IF I cut my finger off, it isn't even entering my mind to run to his house first.

I have all the respect in the world for my dentist, but he is a dentist

Dentist is a Doctor.
Chiropractor is a pretend doctor.

Doesn't matter what he is. Doc, Dentist, Master of Teeth, Massager of Mandibles. Only matters if he can spell "sensitive."

I have two uncles who are twins, one is a a FP MD and the other is a DDS.
They were always both “Docs” to me for as long as I can remember.
One of my best friends is a DDS, I introduce him as “Doctor _____” in a social setting.
You’re a Doc to me.
Thanks for your service, I hope no one bit you.

Never thought about it. My dentist gets high and listens to classic rock, so I call him Bro.

None of the above. More so a person that torchers people.

Never trust a man that will put his hand in another man's mouth.

I consider him a dentist. Sure they are doctors, but so are people with PhD’s
