Here is a complaint that illustrates some of my issues with ClearChoice:
- Recommending the extraction of all the teeth, even when there are some that other dentists would save
- “Pushy” sales tactics
- Offering a discount as a high-pressure sales tactic
Linda here did seek a second opinion, which is what I recommend.
Dr. Hall,
I went to a ClearChoice seminar at the Hilton in Plano, Texas, and 5 or 6 people was there to give their testimonials. I was scheduled a follow-up appointment at the ClearChoice dental implant office in Dallas, TX. They also told me I would have to have “ALL” my teeth extracted. I didn’t go back because I still have teeth that are in good, sound condition, and I knew this. They were too “pushy” and this scared me. I am getting a second opinion, and right now I have found a dentist that I feel is very good, with my best treatment in mind. I was shocked to read your website and find that ClearChoice dental used this same “sales” pitch throughout the country to get you to go ahead and get implants. This seemed to be a scare tactic because they also told me they were giving me a big discount, and I would eventually lose my teeth and have to wear complete dentures if I didn’t go ahead now.
