My experience with dentists around and in TV has not been good. Every dentists I went to insisted my teeth needed a deep cleaning for over $600 and a regular cleaning would not be done.

Went to the "gentle dentist" with a small hole in a tooth and he informed me that he needed to remove my bridge and it would cost $2,000. Needless to say, I won't be going back.

There was a woman at the checkout counter being told she needed to make another appointment for a lot of money and she sighed but made the appointment. I felt sorry for her.

I broke my bridge on my way back to New York and my old dentists repaired it for $500. I shutter to think of what I would have been charged down here. I will continue my search for an honest dentist in my plan. If I can't find one, I will go to someone recommended by friends and pay the full freight. Some things are not worth trying to cut corners on.

BTW - My old dentists confirmed I did not need a deep cleaning that Dr Brignol suggested. When I said my old dentists said I didn't need a deep cleaning, Dr. Brignol said, "he doesn't know what he is talking about". That statement got me upset. Nuff said.
