The dentists at Waldorf Medical Center promote brushing and flossing by providing their patients with discounts on dental supplies purchased during appointments. The dentists also discourage the use of purely cosmetic dental procedures by refusing to accept insurance on those procedures. Despite these initiatives, it is apparent that the dentists at the medical center do not always prioritize brushing and flossing over cosmetic dentistry, for if they did, there would be no
A discounts at the medical center for patient appointments that are scheduled in order to whiten teeth
B discounts at the medical center for appointments that are scheduled for routine dental care
C discounts at the medical center for prescriptions of antibacterial ointment
D surcharges incurred at the medical center for patient referrals to local orthodontists
E surcharges incurred at the medical center for patient consultations concerning aesthetic dentistry
Not able to make sense of the passage. Need help.Dentists above give discount on brushing and flossing but not give any insurance about cosmetic surgery.
It indicates that income from cosmetic surgery revenue is surely more than brushing and flossing as not giving insurance implies person has to go through cosmetic surgery again as their is no insurance.
Argument asks why they don't prefer brushing and flossing
Reason would be simple .it will not be their main source of income.thats why they offer discounts on them because if they value brushing more they would not give any insurance or discount as they do in case of cosmetic surgery.
Dentists are not giving discount on their main source of income.
So A is answer
Give kudos if it helps
