The dental industry is almost completely unregulated compared to the rest of medicine, and there are many "dental group" offices that have price per patient hour type metrics kept against their dentists (who are usually fresh out of dental school with massive debt) that will fire any doctor who doesn't drill enough teeth. The dentists who own their own practice and office are becoming fewer and farther between as equipment costs go up and honestly that was never a guarantee that they weren't crooked anyway because the dental profession as a whole doesn't have formalized standards of care based on studies or objective test results, but mostly subjective observation of a patient's mouth or xrays. If you start talking to people you know about their dental history, anyone who's ever switched dentists or moved from city to city will probably have a story about a cavity that they were told they had that a second dentist didn't notice. I know it happened to me, I had a dentist telling me that I needed a root canal and about 5 fillings, didn't see a dentist for 2.5 years due to moving and covid, and when I finally established myself with a new dentist was told that everything was great and to keep up the good brushing. If dentistry was an actual medical science, this poo poo wouldn't happen all the time.

Dr_Strangelove posted:I found a great dentist who does no upselling, treated some things with basic work before they got out of hand (and the work hasn’t needed rework), and who saw me immediately when an abcessed tooth caused the worst pain I have ever felt. My old dentist was also amazing. Excellent work and patient care. Hell, after I broke my front tooth in half one NYE he essentially recreated it as a giant rear end filling that lasted for years before I needed it to be replaced. He was proud enough of that work to feature it on his website lol. Threw in free teeth whitening as a wedding gift later down the road. Good dentists rock

Trying to find an actual good dentist is borderline impossible, it ain’t a lie. The field is absolutely packed with con artists. This thread is wild lmao, at least we’re not all doom and gloom. e: sorry Kalli, bad timing!

I was actually watching the game when this happened (I rarely actually watch an NFL game). I'll always remember this one shot of 2 Bills players on the sideline when it briefly looked like they were going to continue and 1 of them was just crying and swaying and trying so hard to collect himself, it was so sad. Hope Hamlin pulls through OK. This is totally irrelevant but for some reason every time I try to remember his name my brain wants me to say Darvin Ham (the Lakers coach). Every time! I even typed Ham instead of Hamlin just now!

indigi posted:is there any video of this stuff? I'd like to see it cause it sounds heartening I dunno how much there is, but on air, they did show Taylor and McDermott having a short conversation with each other, then McDermott just jerked his thumb back to the locker rooms and started waving the Bills off the field. Later they were passing a phone between each other outside the visitor locker room, ostensibly telling the league that nah, this ain't happening.

indigi posted:is there any video of this stuff? I'd like to see it cause it sounds heartening Yeah, some 30 second clips is what was shown here and there. The one with Zac having his headphones off you can just see Sean is barely keeping it together. The tweet with the sensitive content is what Zac was seeing from the Bills players - josh allen, diggs, etc - wandering around with thousand yard stares and openly weeping. That's when he walked over. https://twitter.com/rgfray1/status/1610117824214614016 https://twitter.com/GrantB911/status/1610097611385737216 https://twitter.com/bubbaprog/status/1610157380267917313 https://twitter.com/SportsContent23/status/1610107405739913218 adaz fucked around with this message at 22:49 on Jan 4, 2023 |

Dietrich posted:You should probably look into it because it's really not. Well, one of us has actual experience in the dental industry, and the other doesn't. So. Probably best to not assume your one instance of empirical evidence is some sort of trend that dictates an entire medical profession. I understand what you're saying about the large dental groups such as gentle dental but the main problems with groups like that are not exclusive to dentistry whatsoever so not really sure how you got to that conclusion. Edit this isnt the chat thread btw. Let's save the hot takes on medical science for chat thread. lol and as I first edit this, I see the post below. My bad adaz, didnt realize which thread this was.

some of this is me being a homer but between how he handled the shooting in buffalo during the offseason, the numerous high-profile injuries, the game moved to detroit, the team getting stuck in chicago due to the blizzard, and now this thing with hamlin...the team has performed excellently in spite of tons of challenges on and off the field. mcdermott should be a shoe-in for coach of the year, yeah?
