I called to get a cost range for having a chip in my front tooth fixed and was given a range. When I went to my appointment I got a quote for over $100 more than the highest quote, so I told them no I didn't want to do it so the office staff comes in and tells me not to worry about it, it will only cost the highest amount of the verbal quote, so I agreed and had the tooth fixed. I could tell the dentist was irritated that I didn't want to pay the extra money, but he fixed the chip. I noticed on my bank statement they went in and took the extra money out of my account anyway this morning, my appointment was 2-3 weeks ago.
