These clinics are assembly line dental services. They make their money by doing cheap crowns and procedures you may or may not need. In Florida the dental clinics get sued all the time for doing sloppy work. You know if the VA sends you out for it you will get the cheapest care they can find. The clinic will depend on numbers of vets they can tag and not on quality. My VA dentist takes short cuts and does not do the work he should do. I go just to get filings maybe. If I think I need a crown or an implant I go to a dentist that is thinking about something besides saving money for Uncle Sam. The VA has refused to do a crown for me and an implant.
