24 hour dental practice

[bkwash]

My Mentor dentist informed me of this guy who is located in Orlando near the theme parks and attractions, and practices 24/7. This seems like a good idea because most of the people down there would have to visit him for dental "emergencies". Has anyone else heard of practices similar to this or know any additional info about his practice? I couldn't even find a website. Here is a link with his location.

Is it like an "on call" service or does he just have his office up and running 24/7 ?

Would you want to be the patient seeing the dentist at 3 am for a rct?

I'd guess it would have to be some sort of on call service. It would take a lot of volume at night to keep a dentist busy in the middle of the night.

You could probably convince a dentist to moonlight there with some sort of two tiered payscale. You pay them some smaller amount for watching TV or sleeping, and you pay them larger amount for doing dental work.
