Yes, on the dentistry front, where I live in Luxembourg it appears that many dentist tend to favour doing very profitable work rather than offering their patients the more economical treatments. When I needed a lot of work done, I was examined by a number of dentists. The first wanted 25,000 Euros, another 40,000 Euros yet another wanted 1000 Euros for periodontal treatment that was not necessary at all plus 10s of 1000s more for bridges and other dubious treatment that he admitted would likely only last 5 years.

A practice in Trier just over the German border wanted  a more reasonable 12,000 Euros but finally I found a German guy who has a practice in Luxembourg who likes saving people money and who did a totally satisfactory job for 6500 Euros
