She went to Baylee dental for a second opinion, and turned out she needed just one new crown.
I went to that same dentists' office on CR 101 because they were highly recommended by posters here. I had a crack in an existing filling.
It was a nice office and the people I talked to were very pleasant. The dentist I saw told me I needed a crown.
I decided to wait until I got back to my "regular" dentist up north. He said that I needed a filling.
I told him "The Florida dentist told me I needed to have a crown".
He said "I'll do a crown if you want, but it will cost more, and all you need is a filling".
Perhaps the dentist on CR 101 merely had a different opinion. I truly don't think most dentists are thieves.
