yes. he likes to talk about foods that cause cavities. (tangerines and tangelos, for example.) over and over again. which is annoying, but also kind of funny. he won't ever make you feel like a jerk because you haven't been to the dentist in a while. and he won't make you yank out your wisdom teeth just because everyone else in their 20s has them out. although, do note that he doesn't offer friday or late afternoon (after 4 p.m.) appointments, which isn't the most convenient. the office staff is also excellent.
