I can not really comment on the dentist or hygienists skills, I never got that far. I was unpleasantly stopped from attending my 3 week in advance appointment by the receptionist that indicated that I submit my social security number for their files. My thought, and I shared it with her was, with all the hacking and file problems commercial institutions have I feel that it is better to give this number out to less people than more. Having said that and after submitting all of my paperwork and commercial health and dental insurance, home address, yada yada... it still wasn't enough. So I left. Really, what are they going to do with my SS number and all my kids? Isn't this a little antiquated?
