Yeah, if you find an honest dentist in 2023 in the United States, never, ever go to anyone else. Thank GOD I found one recently. After a cross country move I put off going to the dentist for FIVE years because my previous dentist was amazing. The first one I tried was a bizarre Christian cult with a bunch of chi-chi crap in the lobby, and contemporary Christian music that -the dentist hummed along to while working on my teeth-. And then the calls started "You need X, Y, Z and probably A, B and C." and I was like "Nah. Fuck right off." Two more years without, and FINALLY found a guy who was like "You're teeth are fine. We'll keep an eye on some of these, but only worry about them if they cause you pain or have sudden changes." Guy is a gem.
