I had decided to change dentists and a friend heard he was good.(He is no longer in Lawrence, but has since moved to a more expensive address in Hewlett, NY.)
He seems interested only in how much money he can get out of a patient on top of what insurance pays. I regularly go for 6 month cleanings and take care of my teeth, yet he said that I needed to get cleanings 4 times per year ( of which my insurance only covers two ) and that I needed a "deep scaling" cleaning, of which my insurance does not cover the full cost. He also let me know that there were small cavaties in my front teeth and my insurance did not cover white fillings ( I forget the real name of these fillings ). I told him I have never had a dentist who even suggested that they would put silver in my front teeth because of insurance coverage. He also wants to charge for using gas with treatment @ 75.00 per visit. I got the impression that he was only interestd in $ first and then the well being of his patient. If you're willing to accept his outrageous fees, then he's fine, if not, he gets a "take it or leave it" attitude. My cost for my cleanings would be approx. $650.00 out of pocket. I won't be going back..
