It is sad the way some people prey on the elderly, no matter what profession or business they are in. Just talk to the Atty. Generals office or if you are a member of AARP, read the info on scams.
It's not just elderly. My 22 year old daughter has had a general dentist tell her she needs 4 treatments of deep scaling and cleanings every 3-4 months. This same dentist referred her to a periodontist for a possible gum graft. When she asked the periodontist if she had any of the "deep" pockets he said heck no. I have some dental background from years ago so no I am not saying all dentists are bad guys, just some. Like an earlier poster said there are dishonest people in all professions.

Trish was just trying to give some knowledgeable advice!
