Yes, thanks Poppy.
I am looking at this place. http://www.periopeak.com/ Sounds too good to be true, but I can't find any negative feedback despite a long Internet search.

Re: Dentists
We went to the denstist the other day - we just wanted regular old cleaning - they did nothing but tel me that I need to cough up $900 for a deep clean and have my 14 cavaties repaired???????????????? I can tell you right now I do not have 14 cavaties!!!!!!!!!
I just looked at the breakdown sheet they gave me, and they want to charge me $130 for an electric toothbrush???????????
Needless to say I am calling said dentist today to inform them that we shall not be requiring their services!!!

Thats it thats what my dentist in the UK was talking about.......Let us know if you go ahead with it, heck yes I would even pay the same price as the reg cleaning if its a 1 off visit and no pain.

I know its a joke here we should all start to post our Dentist rip off tales.For the record I was told last month I only had 1 wisdom tooth, which seemed weird as I had no recall of the rest ever being taken out
so when I was able to get an appointment with my cosmetic dentist 2 weeks later, I asked him "How many wisdom teeth do I have" Guess what 4

Re: Dentists
It's the same as the UK, if you got quoted $350 for a first check up they are trying to rip you off. Also beware of them 'panicking' you into agreeing to highly expensive 'preventative' procedures, it's standard practice out here to make you think you might drop dead if you don't urgently spend $1000 on some over the top preventative thing.
