Default chance of dentistry becoming commercialized?


SDN Members don't see this ad.
i went to walmart the other day and realized that if they have optometry services set up in their store.. what are the chances of the same happening with dentistry?

walmart as a 'big-box' corporation is seemingly taking over the world (heh).

just wondering your thoughts on this?

The chances are definitely there. Wal-Mart either has them running or is in the plannign stages of having limited health clinics attached to their stores already. Once that becomes a normal occurrance, then it won't be long until small dental practices are attached.
