My sister doesn't give her kids fluoride toothpaste, and they have bad teeth as a result.

Wanna make it rich as a dentist?

I was reading about a dentist yesterday, he bought a practice and discovered a massive discrepancy from the reported income although his patient list was the same as his predecessor. He went through all their files and turned out the predecessor had completed hundreds of unnecessary procedures, making a fortune. He successfully sued for the misrepresented income and so did several of the hoodwinked patients.

According to 'The millionaire next door' book dentist is the most profitable profession in the US

Yeah it's true that can happen.  However, not listening to the dentist hasn't seemed to work for my sister, so does that mean that the dentist's advice isn't even worth trying?
