I am from the UK and have had the same NHS dentist for years now
however I found out that the practice was recently taken over by Aspire Dental Care.
I still get NHS treatment however
I am a bit worried about this because sometimes you hear stories of private dentists giving people treatment that they do not need just so they can charge them for it, this would be particularly easy with NHS patients because they have "price bands" so the practice would only need to say I need the minimum treatment to enter a specific price band and they would get the highest possible payment for it.
I am very worried about this because i hate dentists anyway and from about the youngest age i can remember my mother had a private dentist who always did loads of work, she was suspicious about this and later NHS dentists told her that it they probably just did unnecessary work to get money out of her.
Does Aspire dental care have a reputation for this or any other sort of dishonest practice?
