Not much of a family resemblence, but I'm sure you'd look even better
on a tractor!
We used to cycle with an Eddie Albert, who was a professor at Hofstra
university. IIRC he was a medical sociologist. We used to rib him
pretty mercilessly with that theme song.

Dentistry is completely unregulated, that's how I got posioned by my
dentist
and many other people get screwed by dentists. But don't be so
surprised, all
most industries care about is $$$, not the health of their clients. Up
until know
have you ever questioned the safety of root canals or other dental
procedures.
What is truly scary is a public that lets dentists behave in this
manner. Given the
public's lack of concern over what goes on in the dental profession I
wouldn't be
surprised by the lack of intellectual and scientific curiosity shown
here (as well as the complete disregard for the health of dental
patients) I would expect it!

And we know that doing medical screening for systemic health effects
of Hg or root canals just isn't taught in dental school much less
(GASP!) done in actually practice by dentists. What kind of medical
questionarre do you give your patients
to screen for this kind of health effects?

Typical of your self-serving dental logic. You proclaim that you
cannot "know"
the health of root canaled patients over 80, because you would have to
"check your records", and obviously your fellow dentist's and the ADA
(FDA and NiDCR
all dentally run) have, not surprisingly failed to do such research.
Then based on this admitted lack of data which is you and the "dental
industries" own fault, not robert's (his job isn't to determine the
health effects of dental procedures) you make your final grandiose
proclomation "Endo is safe and effective".
