Love conquers all, part 3

Love conquers all, but maybe this is a little bit of a stretch.

This moment was probably one of the greatest of my life.

This my friends, is India. 

 Street-side dentistry

On our way over to India, our friends that went with us showed us this video on YouTube about a street dentist.  I thought that it would be so cool to see him, but we were not going to Jaipur where the video was filmed.  We were now in Varanasi heading over to the Ganges river. Imagine my elation when walking to our destination when we came across this doctor!

It was like walking into a nightmare gold mine!  Our own roadside dentist on the streets of Varanasi, India!

I loved how his little supply shelf was all organized and tidy :)

Here is a view of the street and while this poor lady was getting her treatment done.

You can even choose your own tooth color!

This dentist was so flattered that we were taking pictures and taking an interest in him.

It's just super convenient to go to the street-side dentist!

The guy on the left was just hangin' out, he was happy to show us the supply shelf when we pointed it out.

If you preferred a more private setting you could always go to the clinic across the street for your dental care.

Or this guy had a more portable dental setup.  Now this would be the ultimate in convenience.  You could just have him come over to your shop and he could do the work right on your door step.

This guy had kind of a nice set up, a bit more comfortable for himself and his buddy who hangs out with him while doing his practice.

I love how in India if you want to be a dentist, you can.  You don't need to busy yourself with years of training and school.  If you want to be a dentist, by all means you just do it!  You go and get those supplies and set up shop wherever you can find a vacant curb.  No one will stop you from pursuing your dreams there!  

You may have to deal with the occasional cow walking by and doing it's business in front of you, but it doesn't matter.  You have freedom.  You can set your own schedule.  You have very minimal overhead.  It's all so...casual and not so uppity.
