Good old fashion type dentist ,(exam fill cavity ,cleaning etc. ) I am still looking, tried 3 different offices none would just do the basic work I requested without signing up for every three month appointments or deep cleanings or crowns etc etc

Which three offices have you tried who will not do just the basic work?

Dental plans.com show what each procedure should cost. Verify not overpaying

Oaks Dental near Glenview Country Club. Wonderful dentist and In United Advantage network.

Signed up with Village Health June of 2022 to be able to get a GP and a Dentist. Well we tried Sumter Dental and their next available time for a new patient was November 16th. So a wait of 5 months for a cleaning !!! Two days before the November appointment the Sumter office called and needed to reschedule because the Doctor was not going be in. So I figured next week be OK but nooo February was the next available.
Well we had already found another dentist, but I wanted to play this out , so took the February date. February came and we showed up for the cleaning, but we were told full xrays and evaluation . The cleaning could only be scheduled after we had reviewed their $15,000 proposal for implants and other work. So the new cleaning date is now June of 2023.
That's right -- one year for a new patient with Sumter Dental to finally get a cleaning

We have United advantage and Villagrs health. We have found a wonderful dentist that is in network with them. Oaksdentalcare.com It is near Glenview country Club.

Please recommend a good dentist who caters to cowards.

No upsell pressure and great work on fillings and a crown as well as good cleanings. Don't let his youthful appearance deter you. Lifetime Dentistry of Lady Lake is your dental care provider in Lady Lake, Florida..

Another vote for Dr Altoos
