My wife had a similar bad experience with a dentist in Summerfield. She had and exam with her NY dentist just before we came to TV last year. Nothing new going on, just a cleaning, exam and have a nice trip. Less than a month later, shortly after arriving in TV she chipped a tooth. After checking for a dentist in her insurance plan she chose the place in Summerfield.
They tried to sell her a whole shopping list of procedures including three crowns, all totaling several thousand dollars. She declined of course and immediately called her NY dentist. He checked her records and said it didn't sound right to him.
Since the chipped tooth wasn't really bothering her she waited until we returned north in the spring to have it repaired. That was the whole deal, repair the chipped tooth.
We both decided then that our primary dental care would remain in NY.
