Subject: Dr Salisbury/Sierra Dental

It was recommended that I go to Sierra Dental after my previous dentist told me that my insurance would not pay for a root canal(because of my age, I'm 53, but thats another story). Anyway I went there to have the tooth pulled, after doing a full mouth xray I was told that the tooth could be saved, they checked my insurance and found that it was in fact covered. After Dr Salisbury examined my teeth, he come up with a whole list of things I needed done( except for the tooth that was giving me trouble my teeth were fine). He claimed I needed caps and fillings and other root canals, the total came to well over $2000. Since my insurance will only cover $1500 per year they said I could either pay the difference or wait until the following year to complete the work. After the root canal and the temporary cap, they also were suppose to get me a permanent cap, I paid $300 out of pocket. I never heard from them again, and when I called they were closed. The temporary cap lasted all of a week, although they claimed it could last for months. I know $300 isn't much, but I still have to pay for a permanent cap elsewhere.
