Bryanna,
This is a franchise. A person I know recommended them to me. I was foolish to go on his word alone and I didn't do research on them first. Had I, I would've seen a lot of negative responses regarding them. They are all over the US. Not sure how to make this private or I would tell you the name of the place. They herd you through like cattle.

Joy,

That is what I gathered from your other posts.

Dentistry was never intended to be run like a car wash. Nothing against car washes.... but that's all they do is wash the car.

The majority of dentists come out of school with enormous student loans and the cost to open their own practice is completely unaffordable. If they cannot hook up with a private practicing dentist, they still must seek employment to start paying off their loans. So without any knowledge of their skill the Director of the franchise brings them in to his business. These offices are run very differently than private practices. The dentists are simply employees and they have a quota they have to meet in order to stay employed there. If they don't make the quota, they either get fired or fined $$$. Because there are so many dentists coming out of school with no job lined up, these franchise owners know they can replace their staff very easily. These offices are also insurance driven... which means every patient gets charged the fees according to their personal insurance plan. Many plans pay very little $$$ per procedure .... so as a rule... these offices often utilize inferior dental materials and dental labs to help keep their over head down.

There would actually be a better way to do this if the health of the patient was of the utmost concern rather than greed being the main motive. But there is greed in every profession and dentistry is no different.

I don't need to know the name of the office... it is irrelevant as they all operate the same way. If you can find a way to see a dentist who is in a private or multi private practice, that may be a better option overall for you.
