Why is it impossible to get a simple cleaning in Seattle without the full sales presentation?

I’ve been to five different offices in the last three years and I’m losing my mind.

They spend 6 minutes cleaning, then pull out the intraoral camera and start the 25-minute pitch: “Your recession is at stage 2, we recommend laser therapy for $2,200 or Invisalign for $5,900.”

I’m a barista who already feels guilty about my coffee habit, I don’t need the guilt trip plus a payment plan. One place in Greenwood actually got annoyed when I said “I just want the cleaning today”.

Anyone know a real dentist in Seattle that treats you like a human instead of a revenue target?
