I admit to being a victim of the Groupon scam!  I can only imagine how many times this office has succeeded in duping customers since my experience with them was exactly the same as others I've read online.  The hygienist will recommend the so-called deep cleaning.  You will be given an estimate of what they would charge you, but since you don't have insurance, you'll get a discounted price.  If you balk at this newly discounted price and threaten to leave, you will be given another discount.  But wait, there's more.  When you go ahead with the procedure, because, golly, it would go against their standards to do the regular cleaning you've bought and paid for, you will get ANOTHER price when it's time to pay!  Please check this price as it will include, \"hygienist Instruction\", which is the for the time and effort she spent talking you into the outrageously expensive deep cleaning.  I'm guessing this $59 is her bonus as it was taken off my bill when I asked what exactly did \"hygienist instruction\" entail.  (the answer was, \"I guess it was her instruction to you\")\nI hope to save others the bother of trying to use this Groupon or any other deal this office issues.  They want you in the chair to sell you unnecessary services at an inflated rate.  (I say unnecessary because I used this Groupon offer to check out a new dental office.  I have a regular dentist to whom I will be returning, who never proposed the amount of work this office proposed!)
