It warms my heart to know that you pay your dentist his dues whenever you go to his office to have your teeth cleaned or to have those rotten molars extracted from your empty head. However, that does not mean that you are entitled to tell the dentist what he should or should not do with his money.
If the dentist wants to squander his hard-earned dollars on scams concocted by obscure and little known con artists who spent time at Sing Sing and wrote their own religious texts to rival the Bible, well, that is his choice.
If the dentist wants to send thieves to jail, I suppose that law enforcement will cooperate with that charge given that their sole mission in life is to prosecute wrongdoers wherever they may be found and thrown into jail for three weeks regardless of guilt or innocence, the facts of the case having yet to be ascertained by a jury of peers in a courtroom presided over by the appointed judge, not that other guy with the ethnic axe to grind, persons in this country presumed to be innocent until guilt is properly determined as per the U.S. Constitution, there being apparently some exceptions in practice for unknown reasons.
Nevertheless, regardless of your exasperation with the dentist's failure to refund your teeth projects despite your whiny demands, still, you have no recourse in terms of legal avenues unless you want to break into his office and steal his financial records, which is illegal and will put you in the slammer with Longwell, or else have an affair with the dentist and clean his clock for whatever you can get. Or else you could marry the dentist and save a lot of money on future dental bills. Those are your options.
Still, none of these options will get you anywhere in terms of cracking the code. Sorry to break the truth to you this way but that was just how things were.
No matter how proactive you are in demanding a refund for all that poorly done teeth work due to the pathetically retro procedures prevalent at the time, the system being what it was, admittedly corrupt human nature being what it is and people being programmed to behave in certain ways, feeling themselves compelled to avoid unspeakable subject matters at risk of utter humiliation and embarrassment, still you will not be able to undo the past deeds and set the clock backwards. You should have thought to set up safeguards and preventive measures and remedial research and demanded perfection in the first place but you did nothing so you do not deserve a refund.
