"Starter holes," really? Think for five minutes. Dental health is invisibly reinforced or ruined by saliva chemistry, which a competent-yet-malicious professional could sabotage in ways most laymen - even a professional investigator such as a police office - would be oblivious to. http://ua.johntynes.com/content_comments.php?id=P3105_0_3_0
I'm not worried about laymen catching it - I'm worried about other dentists noticing. "Second opinion" and all that.
Mostly, I'd assume (but could well be wrong) that the consequences are worse for a dentist than for, say, an auto-mechanic, so there's more incentive for a dentist to be honest.
