The issue is the hygienists. They are a pack of gossiping over opinionated hyenas. Because one of the xrays was shot crooked, one of the hygienist took it upon herself to inform the other hygienists and front desk that my daughter's teeth was horribly crooked, I was probably too poor to fix her teeth, and I am lying about taking them to the dentist every 6 mos--all within earshot of my 12 yr old. Then when the dentist came and viewed the xrays and my daughters teeth, the hygenist started pointing and nudging at the xrays like a 5 yr old telling on a sibling. Dentist was professional and told her the xrays were bent when they were taken, and her teeth are perfect. Even with this, HALF-WAY through the cleaning, the hygienist stopped and said I had to pay before she would finish. Even after the dentist told her nothing was wrong she continued with her fantasy diagnosis. I felt like she was holding my daughter's teeth hostage. The rest of the office was complacent with her behavior.
