I went to this dentist for a cleaning even though I wasn't having any issues with my teeth because they ran a $19 coupon in the paper. They told me I needed a root canal, five fillings, and two crowns for a total fee of over $5,000 up front by cash or check . I asked for an itemization of the charges and they wouldn't give it to me. Instead, they pushed me to take a high interest finance plan. I walked out. Then I went back and got copies of my x-rays (which of course they charged me for). I took those x-rays to another dentist who did an exam and said I have nothing wrong with my teeth.
