      I went to one of those exactly once. If a doctor, vet, or dentist even gives me the slightest feeling that I’m being upsold rather than taken care of, I’m gone forever.

        deep cleaning is shown as a scam, i remember distinctly when i still had my parents insurance this same dude would bring out pics of fucked up teeth and tried to convince people that deep cleaning is necessary. the current one im seeing just charges alot compared to other dentist that allows outof pocket cost.
