I realize now that this is surgery but what should I expect to be charged for something like that and are there other choices for me.:confused: This is adding 3,000 dollars to a quote that I thought was already a bit expensive but I thought the doctor was very experienced and knew what he was doing.
After reading some of the comments here I feel like that he was at least up front with what he wanted to do and didn't try to leave anything out during our consultation. Except of course for the cost of the lengthening. He assistant left that info out since she was the one quoting me all the prices. It is a shame that there are just enough unscrupulous dentists out there that it is hard to tell the difference between the good and the bad. Does anyone know how to really tell and does anyone know a good cosmetic Dentist in Arlington VA area?
Any ideas? or comments?
