O.k.---I'm stepping into the fray here by saying I too have alot of money invested in my mouth and have seen 2 dentists here in T.V. The first was good, maybe even great but my insurance changed and I went to Dr. Fisher. I had the x-ray and teeth cleaning first (I have ALOT of dental implants) and Lucy told me I was doing a great job as my mouth looked good as far as my cleaning went and the condition of my gums. I also saw Dr. Fisher and he did his exam as well. I did not have a strong sell from either of them and was told to come back in 6 months. This would have been maybe 2 months ago or so. I can't say what everyone else has going on with their mouths but I will agree with one or two other posters here that our mouths do change as we grow older. Some of it is our aging process, some can be due to the medications we're taking---but we can develop dry-mouth and this ensues alot of other issues due to the different bacteria that grows in our mouths, hence the decaying. Yes, if you're not satisfied, get a 2nd opinion. Enough said!!! I could go on here but don't want to make others think I'm negating them or attacking them neither.
