I never even heard of this procedure before moving to The Villages. That is why I go to Leesburg for excellent dental work.
Wow. Over a grand? I had a deep cleaning done because I neglected my teeth for so long I suffered gum loss and peridontal root pockets. It didn't cost no where near a grand. I was so tired of my mouth hurting me and got it cleaned up. Some dentist are just plain money grabbers and some are honest.
