Annoying fee trends or smart business?

May 25, 2012
RDH eVillage survey attempts to determine what types of additional fees are being assessed to patients.

RDH eVillage has noticed a trend of additional fees being assessed to patients in dental offices. One example we have noticed is a fee for "cleaning" implant-restored teeth, which often require specialized instruments.

We would like to compile statistics of RDH eVillage readers to see if smart business within dental practices is underway, or if they are just annoying fees of the sort airline passengers complain of when purchasing a flight.

We thank you for participating in the survey, which you can enter by clicking here.
