While in LA, we shopped around for dentists. Several of the smaller places took advantage of the fact we had good insurance and insisted they had found several cavities (11 in once case). Having never / rarely had cavities, we were skeptical and tried other places.
Since moving back to MN, where lack of insurance is less common, we do not have this problem.
The only remaining scam is xrays.
- sroussey 2y agoX-rays are the universal scam. Even the government recommends against them for the last decade at least.
- alistairSH 2y agoI haven’t heard this… what’s the scam? They don’t show anything they isn’t visible with the eye?
- sroussey 2y agoNo, that they do X-rays every year.
- BenjiWiebe 2y agoMy annual xray noticed I had a spacer (little rubber ring) embedded in my gums that the orthodontist missed.
