15.Messy book shelf , unorganized dental materials and cobwebs on the ceiling in a clinic can give you an idea of the cleanliness of the dentist. This is probably effecting the instrument sterilization as well. ( maybe the case but not always )

Chances are your decays will go unnoticed , your scaling(cleaning) will be half done & your fillings might not stay for long! Despite all this the charge will be the same! The less time a dentist takes on a procedure the more chances for you to return back with a complaint. ( this is my personal observation ; need not be the case always )
