i've long known dentistry to be a scam. right after highschool before college i went to the dentist after not going in years, i was told i needed about $11,000 worth of work. like 6 root canals, fillings, crowns etc. i'd been to ukraine on a mission trip and was told it was dirt cheap there and had modern dentist so i flew back (really i just had a crush on my translator and my parents were paying for me to go back so thats why i went) i went to 2 seperate dentists there- one with modern equipment, pretty much same as my dentist here used and both of them said i needed 1 root canal and 2 fillings and they only charged about $200 for a root canal/crown compared to the $2300 my dentist here was wanting for each one kek. had the work done and it was fine- they use some insane powerful numbing thing and i had zero problem with the root canal- i know people here whos face swell up like a balloon and theyre in pain for days and the crown will fail after a few years, mine was over a decade ago and fine. fuck dentists. also in the states most kids will get braces, overseas i barely ever see it- but they're teeth are fuckin fine for the most part. not in britain though, i dont know what the fuck is going on there. but our teeth are still settling when people get braces here- like 12 years old- you dont nee them. total scam.
