Yes, it's not fair to tar and feather them all with the same broad brush. I was actually going to a pretty good one, switched for a more convenient location (it's very close but more importantly, open Saturdays!) and feel much more cynical about the way the new place operates. I'm sure the ratio of fair to extortionate dentists is the same as in any other profession but it is easy to resent the volume of money flowing through those chairs.
