Is It Really Too Much To Ask??

It should be noted that this is going to be a bit of a vent, so feel free to skip this entry. In fact, Mom, since you've heard this, you can definitely skip it. I feel like I have been so incredibly bombarded from every direction with people trying to sell me something. Every other day, someone is knocking on our door telling us we need pest control, new siding, water filtration (because apparently we're all going to get cancer from the water and BPA). And, now, let's just add the dentist to that list. Is it really too much to ask that I can just go to a dentist, have my teeth cleaned, get told to brush more, identify the cavities that need to be filled, and be on my merry way? Now I have to endure a sales pitch on a preventative cancer screen, flouride treatment, and teeth whitening?!?!?! I think I'm going to have to keep searching for a dentist, which is turning out to be worse than pulling teeth. Ba dum ching!
