>What I don't understand is why dentist work is not better regulated and covered by health.
If you read into the history, it's because the doctors of the past didn't consider dentistry to be a real field (basically considered it more cosmetic), so the early pioneers of dentistry profession formed their own club.
And now that there's so much money in keeping the peasant bloodsucking machine known as healthcare going in the US, nobody is going to alter it to even include dentistry. For fear of losing out money.
