What would you say if the DDS had 16 quad plus 3 pro in a afternoon?

This is a Dent-Cal office which only pays appoximatley 118.00 for all 4 quads and your new job wants all four done in one hour. You are given 30 min for adult prophys, no assistant. No treatment plan many times! Yet adult patients 25yrs who are scheduled for prophy but clearly need SRP judging from spot checking pockets and heavy supra calc and BOP. Pt has been going there since he was 10 and you see no perio chart, fmx or notes other than prophys? While checking pockets pt says wow nobody ever went back that far before.He also has never seen probe or scaler before only the polisher, You also are not given an assistant just 3 opperatory chairs and asked to save your energy for the cash patients and insurance patients who are given the same one hour for 4 quads yet billed 700.00 for their cleaning?

Is Denti-Cal Medicaid? I can't imagine any other office trying to run a MILL like this. It is impossible to provide actual dental care under these requirements. If you are a dentist, get out - yesterday.

Reply:you definetly are feeling uncomfortable in this situation, it may be time to consider report this, we are in this bust for pt care, no PSR??? What responsiblity are they taking for the overall care of the pt's and proper perio protcols. Either strat doing ti to cover your butt or report it and get out.Prophys are not enough for adults or even kids, Sc or RP at least 2 units, and a prpoer probing and a perio program to ensure these pt's are not going to have their teeth fall out there head!!
