Tired of Getting Overcharged at the Dentist? Visit CA Dental Group
California Dental Group provides affordable dental care and never tries to sell patients on unnecessary treatments.
Far too many people are neglecting their oral health because they feel they can’t afford dental care. And the fact that dental clinics seem more and more likely to welcome new patients with a huge list of recommended (but not necessarily needed) dental work certainly doesn’t help matters.
If you are looking for affordable dental care without the high-pressure sales pitch, you need to come to California Dental Group. We understand the financial pressures facing many families today and we will help you get the care you need to keep your teeth and gums healthy and pain free.
Why Are Some Dental Clinics So Expensive?
Putting the issue of “high-end” boutique dental clinics aside, many dental clinics are more costly than they should be because they are acting like salespeople.
According to an op-ed from the ADA News (the official publication of the American Dental Association), there seems to be a trend of “creative diagnosis” or the peddling of unnecessary procedures to dental patients in an effort to increase profits. Taking this approach to the extreme has resulted in one national dental chain with hundreds of offices being sued for having a business model where dentists act more like salespeople.
When a dentist acts like a salesperson, they will recommend a treatment for every tiny imperfection in your mouth. For example, they might want to fill every singly cavity, even the tiny ones that have not yet progressed far enough to require treatment. Or, they might push patients to get more expensive treatments—like a crown where a filling would actually do—because they want to collect the insurance money.
Why California Dental Group Is Different
At California Dental Group, we are in the business of caring for patients, not selling dental services. This is why our dental treatment plans are conservative rather than aggressive, and our procedures are always fairly and affordably priced.
We actually focus on prevention, which is the most cost-effective way for patients to enjoy healthy, beautiful teeth for their entire lives. When restorative dental work is needed, we take the time to explain any and all available options to our patients so that they can make an informed decision about their care rather than just taking our word for what is needed. We do also offer cosmetic dental services, but again the focus is always on providing what the patient wants rather than pushing the services with a hard-sell approach.
We accept a wide variety of dental insurance plans and we will be happy to help you maximize your benefits while getting necessary dental care.
Want a Second Opinion?
If you have been quoted a high price from another dental office, we invite you to visit California Dental Group for a second opinion. We will tell you honestly what work is needed now and provide a reasonable estimate.
