Dentist lost licence

I saw this news: The Barrie dentist, Dr. Chapnick lost his licence. The reason stated was that he sexually abused a patient.

He was asked to pay $10,000 to the Royal College of dental surgeons. a quick search showed me he owned two practices in Ontario. But, the offices are not taking any patients for Dr. Chapnick now. 

My heart goes to all those people who worked for him.  Here, even though the doctor is the culprit, the staff also bear the shame. 

Why do things like this happen in dental offices? How the dentist got the chance to abuse a patient? 

It is not easy to get licensed to be a dentist. How many foreign dentists are appearing for the licensing exam and failing each year? Think of the money they have to spend to appear for the exam! 

I just wish dentists think of all those things before writing a prescription and before giving a treatment. 

The shame of malpractice is not only on the dentists, but the family, friends and the staff has to suffer it too. 

It is a sad situation that a dentist or any healthcare provider becomes an abuser. 

Can they get help to stop abusing other people? 

Are there more victims?

So many unanswered questions...

Electric tooth brush

Electric toothbrushes are in style. 

How to use a Sonicare one?

It rotates. So, you just hold it gently against your teeth. No force at all. 

Let the brush do the work for you.

Move from tooth to tooth and allow the brush to work on all surfaces. 

Sonicare has a timer setting. So you will be sure you are not brushing faster. 

My Sonicare even let e know when to change the brush head.

isn't it nice?
