Well.........

Chances are that your insurance plan does not pay the dentist enough
money for him/her to take their time delivering dental care.  To have a
decent profit margin they have to have all chairs full and all employees
working *hard* every minute of the day.

Fees are going to be a lot higher in the type of practice that you wish
to have treat you.  It is unlikely that they would participate with any
discount insurance plans.
