Apparantly my state allows extended scope hygienists to practice in their own offices, unsupervised by a dentist! When did this happen?

Yeah, I heard theses "hygienists" are trying to place implants and extract thirds.
 
They're even trying to get their patients to call them Doctors........are pigs flying too?

Wenn diese verlängerten Spielraum-Hygieniker anfangen, sich wie das zu üben, was wird der periodontists tun?

Ich muss jemanden halten und ihre weiche Haut liebkosen. Wo ist mein Sherdon Cordova?
 
I heard these hygienists need a referral from a dentist kind of like a physical therapist needs a prescription from a physician.
 
scrotty= extended function hygienist....wait, I mean scrotty=dysfunctional hygienist

I shouldn't be comparing scrotty to dysfunctional hygienists... that probably isn't fair to all the dysfunctional hygienists around the country...

... mean while, somewhere else in this beloved country, probably in some cave or basement, Scrotty is sitting in front of his computer, swearing so heavily in German that he is peppering his computer monitor with spit. Above his computer is the token picture of "the little mustached man" (I just don't have the heart to break it to Scrotty that Adolf wasn't a daily flosser and that his mouth was filled with 4-7 mm pockets, gums bleeding, halitosis...I just can't...I care too much about the feelings of my little scrotty) and a swaztika flag....

Makes for a good laugh. But you know this broo-hah is like some dude in a NASCAR Racing Technician program getting his feathers ruffled because some garage mechanic rebuilds auto engines for the homeboys who run their rigs at the local 1/4 mile oval on Saturday nights. Why do an OMS program? To learn to pop 3rds and sink single anchors or do major reconstructs etc?

Esclavo, Sie sind ein mächtiger Tiger. Ich lege niedrig mich zu Ihnen, Sherdon Cordova vor.

Meow...Meow...Meow!

Rx: there is crap on this person's tooth; please scrape on it with a sharp instrument until it falls off.
