Case Description
Additional note for this request for assistance... I have Metlife Dental Insurance.
I had located a general dentist that stated he could perform peridontal procedure. I had the left side done and had scheduled appointment for the right side. After prolonged sensitivity on the left side, I went for my appointment and advised the dentist that I didn't want to have the right side done until sensitivity went away. He applied a topical and end of appoinment. Must to my dismay, I was charged for services not rendered. Dentist is now trying to recover $650 for that billing. I need an evaluation for work performed, or rather not performed. I'm looking for someone close to 85051 27th Ave/Northern area for hopefully a free evaluation. Can anyone assist? Thanks

Are You This Patient?
When selecting a new doctor, consider the following:
Quality of Explanations: Compare dentist replies. Give preference to well-reasoned, detail-oriented, transparent explanations.
Experience & Qualifications: If a dentist has a practice listing, check their practice description,
special training, typical office procedures and before & after case photographs.
Other Patients' Freedback: If a dentist has reviews, read other patients' reviews. The more
reviews they have, the more likely it is that other patients' feeback is accurate.
Treatment Costs: Dental procedure costs vary from practice to practice and depend on a variety of factors.
Because quality of patient care and treatment results vary from practice to practice most dentists will not "price-match" treatment fees of others.
