I am reminded of this old (forgive me) The Atlantic piece. It has two through-lines. One is the story of a dentist that was doing malpractice, finding issues in people’s teeth that didn’t exist so he could milk their insurance (and ruin their lives). The other is the story of why dentistry is separate from the rest of medicine.
