Dentists are easy targets I guess. That said, much of the whole "cosmetic
dentistry" stuff from the 90's-00's was pretty sleazy from a marketing
standpoint. I took tons of CE related to that and while the technical side of
it was solid the marketing never sat well with me. These days if a patient has
something they don't like about their smile or I see something obvious that
could be improved I will discuss it, but I do not pressure anyone into
anything. I alway share with them that they may accept some, all or none of my
recommendations and I have no hard feelings no matter what they choose. Some
will. Some won't. So what? Next. How's that for marketing? Ride on.
