The Dark Side of Dentistry is the whistleblower podcast exposing the real business of corporate dentistry — the upsells, the pressure tactics, the treatment you don’t actually need, and the financial machine designed to keep patients in the dark.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hosted anonymously by The Drill Teller, a former insider with years of first-hand experience, this show reveals what dental corporations never want the public to hear:

* How quotas influence your treatment plan
* Why overdiagnosis is becoming shockingly common
* The red flags patients miss every day
* The truth about “free cleanings” and “same-day dentistry”
* How some offices turn your fear into profit

Every episode breaks down a new tactic, backed by real experiences, industry knowledge, and the kind of transparency you’ll never get from a corporate dental group.

This isn’t gossip.

This isn’t fear-mongering.

This is the truth — and once you hear it, you’ll never look at dentistry the same way again.

Press play. Your wallet and your health deserve to know the truth.</itunes:summary>
