They were supposed to do my cleaning last April. When I called to make sure they would be doing it they said no but someone would call to reschedule. They never did until the next scheduled cleaning last month and then they wanted me to go to their office over on 441. Needless to say I have found another dentist. Over a year and a half without a cleaning and then to shift me over to a further office just won't do it.

Just an interesting observation that makes this site so interesting: to see and read how relative things are to various people who come from such diverse places and background is all. When you are from a small town in Nebraska or Arkansas, you can't imagine having dental costs of $10K is all I mean by this.

Also interesting to see the levels of service from support staff, scheduling even office locations people will tolerate. And of course it's always about the provider, they have no culpability. All about the diversity in The Villages which is why any recommendations need to be researched......we all have different levels of acceptability.

Good teeth worth every penny

The $10 grand is nothing remark is obviously meant that dental work can be very expensive , not that $10 ,000 was nothing and for those lucky enough to not have problems good for you. , but for those who have had to have work done they know it’s worth it , dental work is not just teeth it’s gums and bone that can go bad for all kinds of reasons. 30 years ago I had to have gum surgery and some caps , people said it’s not worth it some already had false teeth but I’ve heard from people years later that they wished they had spent the money, it doesn’t matter whether you come from small town or big town dental health is important to your whole body health. Since the initial gum work I had to do it again and had some new caps , many of my problems came from 40 years in third world countries and the water and tropical diseases I had along the way , but I will continue to care forb my teeth no matter the price even at 82 and to help with the vigilance I get them deep cleaned every 3 months money well spent

I go to Dr. Price just for annual exam and xrays only. He has never tried to upsell any treatment and has always given me an excellent report on the health of my teeth. I go to Dr. John Bonner for perio-maintenance which is a deeper cleaning than a regular dental cleaning. I don't have any complaints about Dr. Price's practice.

I also had to go to their 441 office for a cleaning (when I was using Dr. Price's for cleanings). I was told the 441 office is for all the cleanings because they were attempting to keep all the aerosol procedures to one office. I did as they requested.
