You are saying that multiple dentists found issues with your wife's teeth, she routinely refuses treatment, and this is somehow a scam?

This whole post is about dentists recommending unnecessary treatment. And that has been our experience.

She never had all these issues when she was seeing her dentist in her own country. But a few years in the US and her teeth are practically falling apart. Is it possible her previous dentist with no financial incentive found nothing wrong with her, yet the new one who is trying to make next quarters profit has every incentive to upsell?

Find out if dentists are trained and licensed the same way in your wife’s home country as they are in the U.S.

She's going in for cleanings. If she's not experiencing problems, what does that tell you about the prognoses she's receiving?

Subjectively not experiencing problems isn't really in indication of good health though.

That sometimes problems don't hurt until they're serious problems?

I would rather have a tooth taken care of before I need a root canal?
