I has a gold crown put in my mouth last year by Dr. Childree because the filling was failing. He did so without disclosing the cost. I nearly fainted when I was asked to pay $900.00 at check out. I think any procedure this expensive should be disclosed to the patient in advance !!! A crown I had put in by another dentist in Kennesaw, GA 9 mos. prior was much,much, much less expensive. I had serious nerve and sensitivity problems after the crown was glued in that lasted for nearly 6 mos. I have not been back.



Dr. Childree has now retired and a new husband and wife dentist team own this practice. From what I have heard from friends and neighbors, nothing much has changed regarding the practices of not disclosing costs to a patient in advance of treatment. Be aware.
