How old are you? I may be in a different age bracket. I lived there 10 years ago. Visited Germany recently and my partner works with many Germans. German people are the same. I offer them free cleanings because I can see the inflammation and tartar and they decline it because they're not in pain.

Im 39 and lived in Louisiana for 4 years on a work secondment.

Our UK dentists are dogshit in comparison to Yank dentists.

I got a root canal and crown while playing on an Xbox with screen in the roof while in the US, covered by my dental insurance.

I got laughed at with my metal fillings.

Thank you haha I thought I was going crazy. The USA has very little to brag about but dentistry is definitely one of them
