The dental industry in America is massive. Why is it such an important part of the American lifestyle?

    You get orthodontics under German public health care, still US American teeth are something else entirely. It feels like basically everybody has veneers over there.

    And yes, the UK is something else, too, when it comes to dental health care. Not in a good way, mind you.

        I’m old enough to have grandchildren and I know exactly zero people with veneers (in Germany – I do know people from the US with). Is this a contest?

          Veneers are extremely uncommon in the US. That’s what they’ve saying. You said it seemed like everyone here had them.
