            <description>Nine out of ten dentists see dental insurance companies as enemies rather than allies, according to a survey conducted by The Wealthy Dentist. In the eyes of the average dentist, insurance companies exist solely to turn a profit and have little or no interest in actually helping patients or doctors. However, insurance does bring patients in, and few dental practices have the option of not dealing with insurance companies. [PR.com - April 21, 2007]</description>

            <title>Board Certification for Cosmetic Dentistry? Dentists Say No.</title>
            <link>http://www.pr.com/press-release/35119</link>
            <description>Dentists are opposed to cosmetic dentistry becoming a board-certified specialty, according to a Wealthy Dentist survey.
