I have found that Dentists in The Villages are expensive and love to up sell. It's part of the convenient charge for being close and maybe golf cart accessible. I use Dr. Timothy Pruitt, 15820 Dora Ave, Suite A, Tavares FL 32778 (352) 589-5660. Yes it is 45 minutes from here but several of my neighbors have gone to him and stayed. There are 3 dentists and the philosophy of the practice is to give fair prices and establish a shared development for treatments. I have had two crowns over the last 5 years and didn't come close to $3600, in fact I think both were just slightly over 4. Neither required a root canal which would be additional. Staff is competent and friendly and the doctors are young (of course so is everyone compared to me). Dr. Pruitt's practice is worth including in your investigation and search.
