This is my dilemma. I love my dentist, trust him and want to continue with him for major work. His office doesn't not accept BC BS. My policy allows two cleanings a year. Six months ago, the charge was over $300.00. If he accepted the insurance, the charge is only $25.00.
My husband wants me to go to his dentist for cleaning who accepts the insurance, but I always thought you stayed in one office for all treatment.
I mentioned this to my dentist's assistant who was very adamant about the entire conversation. She claims "not all dentists are alike", "he would charge for an appt" ( which he does anyways) " there's a reason why we don't accept insurance". (They don't pay the amount that the dentist charges), etc.
So is it a common practice to go one place for cleanings and another for crowns, fillings, etc?
Thank you.
