I think Dr. Dalgues does good work. However, her approach is extremely aggressive, which makes me wonder whether everything she recommends actually needs to be done. She told me I needed to have all, yes all of my prior fillings replaced and that I needed another half dozen fillings as well. Another dentist disagreed entirely, with the exception of one worn filling that "could" be replaced but didn't "need" to be. As for the other fillings I simply had to have, the other dentist said he would prefer to "keep an eye on" those areas rather than drill them and fill them right away. Another time she told me I needed a root canal immediately and gave me the number of an endodontist, stressing that I needed to call that person that same day. I called a different one, who told me I did not need a root canal. Another thing that I hate is that if you miss your 6 month cleaning appt. (stretching it to, say, one year) then Dr. Daligues will insist that you have a "deep cleaning" rather than a regular cleaning. Well, the deep cleaning is a lot more expensive and unpleasant, and my insurance doesn't cover all of it. Her approach is so aggressive that I am afraid to go to the office. I'm submitting this review so I can look for a new dentist.
