They do the more complex things like removing wisdom teeth, root canals and stuff, but anything cleaning related, they let their "bitches" handle. I've had appointments where I spend 45 minutes with the hygienist and 2 minutes with the dentist.
No idea either, but I can attest it's exactly the same in QC. The hygienist whores herself out then the dentist comes, puts his fingers in your mouth for 15 seconds and goes away.

Does he say "was it as good for you as it was for me" after he pulls out?

At about 16 I had my wisdom teeth pulled. I didn't get surgery (didn't get put under). I had it done at the dentists office with only local anesthetic. He did it over two visits. First week he did the left side, next week he did the right side.

Worst. Pain. Ever.

The top teeth were fine. The bottom teeth were so painful because apparently they were growing horizontally and never broke through the gums. So he'd slice the gums open, try yanking, couldn't, then started sawing the tooth into little pieces. And I felt it. Even after a bajillion shots of anesthetic. It got to the point where he stopped with his fingers still in my mouth. I was like wtf is he stopping? Turns out I was biting his fingers so hard involuntarily, lol. Last time I ever saw that guy again.

Why no surgery? The recuperation time was only like half a day and I was back to eating normal food. Surgery would leave people in a terrible state for up to a week. Seemed like a good idea at the time.

Sounds horrifying Adam! I had all 4 taken out in one visit. Definitely put me under though!! I woke up in the car with my Grandmother, and we were miles away from the oral surgeon's office.. Lol! The top two had already grown in, but he had to cut the bottom two out and stitch up the gums. It was sore for a few days.

Basic dental care is covered by most company benefits. If you want like dental cosmetic stuff though, yeah...out of your pocket.

Ugh, I've had a fuckton of dental work done. Eight teeth pulled, palate expander, braces for two years, and headgear (thankfully only at night) for a bit. I guess my mouth was too small for all my teeth, which required the pulling. And then there was a fear (they took two wisdom teeth, and left the other two) that when my two remaining wisdom teeth came in, they'd knock everything out of alignment and I'd need braces again. Thankfully, that didn't happen.

Oh, and I lost my front two teeth to a tragic Razor scooter accident on the second day of 6th grade.

Eh, with enough gumption, anything's possible.

And I haven't heard any complaints, either.
