  • Also when did it become ok for dentists to tell you off for not brushing up to their standards. I just noticed how they routinely use shaming as a form of control.

    I think they’ve always done this, and it has the opposite effect on me. I don’t want to be shamed, so I don’t go, tooth starts to hurt, but they’ll shame me, so I don’t go, things get worse, have to go, get shamed, get fixed, remember shaming, don’t schedule next appointment, repeat.

    Please remember to brush your teeth and visit the dentist. Don’t be me. You only get two sets and you’ve already burned through the first one.
