Deep cleaning usually run $150-$400 depending on area. The $700 charge does sound very high. Are you sure the deep cleaning was the only charge or are there others?
Thank You

This is an area of dental service I've not looked at because so far it doesn't apply to me. I assume it is periodontal disease related.Deep cleaning usually run $150-$400 depending on area. The $700 charge does sound very high. Are you sure the deep cleaning was the only charge or are there others?
Not yet.
You've got fireflies? I haven't seen those suckers in years.Not yet.
That could be a problem, I might attract fireflies in the yard at night.
On the other hand:
It might be a help, I might not have to turn on the light when I get up at night to go to the bathroom.

Yes, we have let a lot of volunteer trees grow in our backyard. This makes some daytime shade which must help them survive in the heat advisory weather 2-3-4 weeks ago.You've got fireflies? I haven't seen those suckers in years.
Doubt if this is the issue, the estimated cost figures I provided were retail, not after discounts. Something is just not right here. Maybe the dentist is charging way too much, or there are other charges in the quoted prices that are not being provided, something.(also if this was a dentist NOT in an Ameritas network, patient would be being subject to provider's full retail, not a network adjusted figure like OP might be more used to thinking about.)

Ouch, way over priced. This is info sent out by Lifeshield.I have a client on Ameritus and she went in for a cleaning and was told it was a deep cleaning and after insurance paid $75 she owes $700
Does that even make sense even if one does not have insurance ?
2nd if it all makes sense does anyone cover better? CUL?
