HURON — The abrupt closure of Countryside Dental in Huron is under investigation by South Dakota Consumer Protection within the attorney general’s office.

“Many patients who purchased membership dental plans offered by Countryside Dental now feel that they may have been scammed,” he said.
As a result of those reports, the investigation was opened, he said.
