I called them yesterday and they don't do sliding fee scales and they also require payment upfront. I actually just got off the phone with Everett Emergency Dental across the street from Costco and it's only $80 for the first visit. Even Community Health charges $107 and they don't do a sliding fee scale for adults in need.

We just saw Dr Steen in Bothell for a similar situation with a funky wisdom tooth. He seemed mindful of expenses for families and was able to explain clearly why he was recommending not pulling it in this case. PM me if you want more info.

I second Dr. Steen's office, my 10 year old is having 4 teeth pulled by his associate this coming week also for her orthodontist. They were very upfront about the cost and took extra time to make sure my daughter understood the procedure and felt at ease about coming back for it.
I'm looking for recommendations for an oral surgeon that does the tongue-tie release procedure (frenectomy) either laser or surgical. If you've had this procedure, any...

For an adult or child? My daughters had it done by Patricia Freeburg at Providence in Everett. She's a nurse practitioner not an oral surgeon though.
