My dentist in Ocala never mentioned anything about deep cleaning. The dentist at LSD says that he can't tell if I have any cavities until the heavy stains are removed. That sounds absurd to me. My Ocala dentist was able to see minor decay from the x-rays.
I now that some people on here have recommended Lake Sumter, but I got really concerned when they mentioned "deep cleaning" which I've often heard is a scam.
I made an appointment for this deep cleaning, but I intend to cancel it.
Any opinions or suggestion would be appreciated.

I feel your pain, when a dentist here in the Villages sees my mouth the $$$$ start to flash in their eyes. I was given an estimate of $19,000 dollars and a lady with book in hand, came into me in the chair to start making appointments. When I said I couldn't spend $19,000 she said well we could break that into two parts and start with the $12,000 part. wondering which of us was loosing it first, I fled the scene.
The dentist I felt most comfortable with Dr. Maria Luong at Serenity Dentist and Spa in Spanish Springs. 350 1933
