In his office he has a button on the dentist s chair which you can hold on to during treatment. Whenever you feel the slightest discomfort, you can push the button and he will respond to your pain.

This, in fact, turns out not to be the case, especially as you move up the IQ spectrum. When people with above-average IQ encounter claims that they know little about (which is most claims for most of us), intelligence is usually not a factor in belief, with one exception: once people commit to a belief, the smarter they are the better they are at rationalizing those beliefs.
