I've noticed before that when you go to a low income dentist or a dentist that takes medicare or medicaid they often find a lot of things wrong because they get paid more for certain things so they find cavitys that arent there and do unecessary root canals or other things. But when you go to a higher end dentist that does not accept those insurances they dont find anything wrong.

I've had this happen a few times. One dentist was a low income dentist and she would find and fill 7 cavities every 6 months. I didn't go to the dentist for 2 years because of Covid. I finally went today to a nice place that I knew did not accept my insurance because I wanted to avoid fraud. The dentist said my teeth looked great.

Does anyone know anything about dental fraud with certain insurances?
