What do you picture when you imagine the life of a dentist? Money? Prestige? Glamour?

Well, prepare to have your assumptions shattered.

As a practising dentist, Dr Max Lee has seen it all - and now he's breaking the dentists' code to give you a candid look behind closed dental clinic doors and into the enigmatic mind of a dentist.

In a bid to resolve any misconceptions and share his experiences, Max holds nothing back as he:

  • Discusses the conundrums of dealing with difficult patients
  • Spills tips about how to sue the dentist (you've heard that right!)
  • Exposes the shady practices of certain members of the industry
  • Reveals his own personal income to discuss the money side of dentistry
  • Finally attempts to answer the question: "Why am I a dentist?"

Through entertaining anecdotes and philosophical insights, Max reveals exactly what the life of a dentist entails. Dentists will nod in understanding. Dental students may rethink their careers. Dental patients will never look at their dentists the same way ever again.
