This was the worst experience I have ever had at a dentist. I have been looking around for a new dentist now that I have moved and found the coupon for the $49 cleaning. I went and they got me in the chair and did the usual x-rays. After waiting for 1/2 an hour for the dentist- and they hadn't even done any cleaning at this point, they came in and told me that I needed a more extensive cleaning and they would have to numb my mouth- it was going to cost me over $100. I told them that I just wanted the basic cleaning today and that I would think about the deeper cleaning and come back for that later. They insisted that they wouldn't do the regular cleaning for me, and so after arguing with them (which I shouldn't have to do at the dentist) I told them that either they needed to do what I came in for or I would leave. The hygienist told me that, ""I think it would be best if you just left."" So I headed out and they still charged me the $49 even though they refused to give me the service that I came in for. I understand that they felt I needed the extra cleaning, but they are my teeth- it's my choice- and they got me in with the coupon only to turn it into a sales pitch. I went to another dentist the next morning, they cleaned my teeth, told me that my gums were healthy, not anywhere near the scare tactics they used at YFD. Terrible experience, frustrating and rude employees- I won't ever go there again.
