Creepy Dentist Stuff

I find this really sleazy.
It looks (a little) like a larger, more organized independent referral
service, but there's only like four docs in the registry, and one of
them comes up every time--no matter what zip code you put in.
Ugly.

There are only three actual dentists in there. One of them is named "Testing Testinname" and his phone number is 555-555-5555.
ETA: And the guy whose name comes up no matter what offers the advice of "[b]rush, floss and pray."
So now they are just dirt-covered English people in fur pelts with credit cards.
I wonder which is more effective in controlling cavities, swishing with an oral rinse, or saying a Hail Mary?

"Tooth fell out" is an odd service for a dentist to offer, but I note one of the other things he treats is "teeth that stay in."

Glad I don't have to use a site like this. I rinse after every meal with soda, just like I'm supposed to.
So, I'll whisper in the dark, hoping you'll hear me.
Those are the ones I want fixed. Can't afford to have the lost teeth looked after, too.Originally posted by Zuul

Is there anybody specific I should pray to about my teeth?

Makes me wonder, who uses a website to find a dentist or doctor? I guess someone new to an area, or someone trying to stay in a particular health plan. Seems to me that an actual first-hand referral would carry more weight.

Yeah, particularly since it really does seem entirely focused on sending people to Dr. Tooth Depray.
