Anyone else notice how the cost of dental services has increased... I'll admit, I have not dug up bills from a few years back and compared... but our last few bills for basic services seem higher than I remember.
Our dental insurance premium had a large increase this year also... no doubt because of increased cost of services.
Am I imagining this? Have you seen the same thing?
I am wondering if the insured are experiencing cost shifting? Surely my dentists cost have not increased that much.

Maybe this is it!

It would really piss me off if I found that my dentist was charging me more because i have insurance and someone that pays cash gets a steep reduction! Or that he is running credit for people and they don't pay and the rest of us eat the cost of the delinquent customers.
