Turns out it was a spoof to emphasize the increasing costs of dental care. Nice message, but when I first saw the video, I was shocked.

Lidocaine - a controlled substance - did not set off any red flags?

Lol, me too! Definitely talking about the experience in my personal statement too

Technically, isn't toothpaste, mouthwash, and flossing basically this? Enough preventive care (and awareness) basically replaces the need for dentists to fill cavities, right? Haha.

I work at a dental product research company and we have received several offers from companies like this to test their products. They are completely serious and it is 100% legal for parents to to this to their kids and on themselves.
It's just ridiculous that they could expect the average joe to understand the full anatomy and physiology of a tooth to a point that they could properly excavate caries without either doing to much or simply filling over decay that they didn't remove in the first place
