Overview
- Skyline Smiles’ Yelp page was flooded with one‑star posts after the clip spread on TikTok and X, leading Yelp to temporarily halt new reviews for potential misuse.
- Dr. Harleen Grewal defended the remarks as roast‑style humor and free speech, saying a prior California Dental Board visit found no wrongdoing.
- The California Dental Association said the comments, even if intended as humor, do not reflect the ethical standards of the profession.
- Following the uproar, Instagram accounts for MAGA Dentist and Skyline Smiles were disabled, and KTLA reported the practice website was temporarily inaccessible.
- Civil‑rights attorneys warned that differential treatment based on politics could be unlawful if carried out, and an unrelated Chicago clinic named Skyline Smiles reported misdirected review‑bombing.
