The ADA came out against the tariffs stating that it could threaten dental practices across the country and force doctors into a life of different crimes.

What would be more adverse to dental practices? Tariffs or having to provide care to subsidized patients?

Just escaped imprisonment in a dentist's basement coincidentally for just as long as a Rocky ban

I know the Milwaukee dentist shooting is a crime against dentists and that vigilante justice is not the be encouraged. That said, I hope it gives all some manner of peace that the last thing he did was watch Doc Rivers attempt to coach a playoff game.

   i had an assistant(note-past tense) who turned to me and said that she had a very dear friend who was fighting breast cancer and very typically, was loosing her hair during the chemo phase of treatment. she proceeded to tell me that she wanted to shave her head to be "in unity" with her during this very trying time of her friends life.  i did commended her for her loyalty, but then suggested to her(very strongly) that there may be a few other ways to honor her friend.  my sympathies were truly with her friend, but i could not allow my (ex)employee(s) to use my place of business to show everyone else that she "cared".

  she is not, not with me anymore because of that issue, but think next crazy thought or move and you'll understand why i almost started cutting myself again

  am i against people fighting breast cancer because i "strongly" suggesting she NOT shave her head?  absolutely not.  i have had a number of friends and family members fight this fight.  if my assistant would have asked me if she could've worn a pink ribbon on her scrubs, maybe even with her friends name on it,  i could have considered that.  the head shaving thing, however, could generate more questions than answers.  the last thing i needed was for us having to explain to everyone who walks in to our office why i've got an employee looking like prymaat conehead

Good lord this is even worse than I remember. Even knowing the source it's unbelievable.

I overlooked the needing to consider the pink ribbon. Like even that might have been a step too far and needed some thought.

(honestly) had drinks with a dentist tonight.  New Medicare regulations may bring practices to their knees.  Please pray for them!

The thought of dentists loose on the street, jobless and desperate, is quite concerning.  So much for making America safer

I had forgotten how truly rancid but unbelievably funny the whole thing was. And the inability to understand why everyone made fun of him for it.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Root_Cause_(film)

This film's Wikipedia is full of quotes like this:

"Dr. Fred Barnett, chair of dentistry and program director of endodontics at Einstein Healthcare Network in Philadelphia said, "there hasn't been one valid medical or scientific study published anywhere that can show causation between having a root canal and developing cancer."

"The president of the American Dental Association said the film "contains significant misinformation that is not supported by scientific evidence, which can cause unwarranted fear among viewers"


I sure want to believe them but are dentists really the ones we want to trust with claims of "medical misinformation"?!?!
