       I’m sharing this because I don’t want anyone else to get caught in the same trap we almost did. My wife and I just had to fire our dentist for what I can only call predatory billing and dangerous medical advice.The "C-Word" Scare Tactic: They told my wife a spot in her jaw "could be cancer." Then, instead of ordering a standard biopsy (covered by insurance), they tried to charge us $750 for "Bone Grafts" and "Growth Factors." Wait, what? You don’t put "growth stimulants" on a suspected tumor! That’s like putting gasoline on a fire. It was a $13,000 "Safety Package" sales pitch disguised as medical concern.The Billing Red Flags:They tried to charge $300 for an extraction that our insurance contract says is $115.They insisted on an $800 "Laser" for a standard cleaning.They told me that because I’m diabetic, I needed $7,400 in elective grafts to heal. (Joke's on them: My A1C is 5.6—I'm healthier than most people half my age).The Moral of the Story: If your dentist tells you that your "cheap" HMO insurance doesn't cover what you "need," check your booklet! They are legally required to provide the Standard of Care at the price in your contract. Don't let them scare you into "VIP upgrades" that make no medical sense.
