The office manager is the gal that gave DH an earful when he was checking out. When he expressed his dissatisfaction she told him she didn't appreciate being talked to that way and perhaps he shouldn't return.
We googled the franchise and there are a lot of complaints. I just learned that when DD6 went in for her cleaning (with DH), they too wanted to do some work on her molars because she has "grooves" on her molars and they want to put something in there to prevent cavities down the road.
I have to say, I'm 46 and have never had a cavity.
Have you called the BBB? Is the franchise owened by the dentist or is there someone else you can talk to?
I really think that if you have the estimate you can probably make them eat this $500. It was their mistake, not yours..
Would your insurance have paid if a perio had done the work?
The something they wanted to put into the grooves is a sealent. My oldest had that done, they're pushing it for my middle one (and I will do it as his teeth are horrid) but our insurance didn't pay for them and we had to go OOP.... they were about $18 each?
I'd go in tomorrow with the thing you have and see if you can't change their minds. It's def bait and switch. I'd also report them to the dental or ethics board... complaints go on their liscense in some states
