“If you go to an American dentist, you’re getting ripped off.”
Ain’t that the truth...greedy endodontist bastards around here want a grand for a root canal.
They wiggle one tooth and they charge for an exam. You ask one question and they charge for a consultation. They take an X-ray of one tooth and don’t even tell you what it showed and charge you for an X-ray.
If you complain, they actually say “All dentists do this.”
Yes! They do! Take it off my bill! I got my bill reduced to just the cleaning by making a royal fuss.
