In this candid and spirited episode MJ recounts a personal experience at a new dental office (recommended by a friend) that purportedly aims to offer high-tech, premium services. Throughout her visit, she encounters a hard-sell on unnecessary and costly procedures such as periodontal cleanings, alongside similar attempts with her teenage son.Through the right mix of humor and gravity, MJ effectively captures the essence of healthcare self-advocacy.Quotes:• "You mean to tell me I've got to have this type of clean? Are you serious?"• “If we do a regular cleaning and we start breaking up all that stuff in your mouth, it could break up and then it could get in your system and kill you.”• "I ran an HIV dental clinic, so I know a thing or two about a dental clinic and teeth."• "Don't let these people scam you."———————MJ is the host of "Put a Pin In That" and recounts amusing anecdotes from her journey, spanning her college years, married life, parenting escapades, and various work-related exploits.
