Do dentists hate each other? Kyle and Martin have thoughts.
In this episode, Dr. Kyle Stanley and Dr. Martin Mendelson dig into one of dentistry's more uncomfortable realities — the way dental professionals treat each other online, and why it's making everyone's job harder. Zirconia vs. biomimetic. Graft or don't graft. Hazmat suit for amalgam removal. The clinical debates are real, but the comment sections have become something else entirely.
Kyle is clear: most dentists he's met — across 48 states and 50 countries — are good people trying to do their best with the tools and training they have. The bad actors are a fraction of a percent. But that fraction is loud, visible, and giving the whole profession a reputation problem. And when your patients walk in already convinced you're going to upsell them, you feel that every single day.
Martin's push is on how dentists disagree, not whether they should. There's a difference between a nasty comment and a principled rebuttal. And if you genuinely believe a colleague is harming patients, keyboard bravery isn't the answer — the state board is. Public pile-ons don't change minds. They just give skeptical patients more ammunition.
The antidote to all of it? Study clubs. Mastermind groups. WhatsApp threads full of dentists from around the world actually helping each other. That version of dentistry exists too. Go find it.
