Deep Cleaning : bot-bot

My new dentist is a full-blooded Filipina but couldn’t speak tagalog because she was born and raised here in the US. She’s young and kind, kinda-friendly. Hmmm this post is not about her but about my dental check-up today. My appointment with the dentist was supposedly check-up slash (/) cleaning but in x-ray alone took much of the time because their PC was not in the mood. After the xray, the dentist had to explain the xray result to me. She also checked my teeth and she couldn’t find any damage or fault on my teeth so that means she couldn’t collect any moolah from me, hahaha! All I want in that clinic was to clean my teeth (although I don’t have that tartar yet cause I did some cleaning before leaving Philippines) --- its been 6months that I didn’t go to the dentist for cleaning. BUT heck! There was a red flag in that clinic (I think), the dentist suggested that my teeth should undergo “DEEP CLEANING” which cost more than 500 bucks! Tell me she just wants to collect money to pay for her employees.

Yay! Deep cleaning means to scrape my gums to death ?! She couldn’t get enough money from regular cleaning that’s why we suggested for deep cleaning. Until now, I couldn’t believe that one dentist here sucks. I WOULD PREFER TO USE THAT $500 AS MY PLANE FARE AND LET MY ORIGINAL DENTIST DO THE CLEANING (BARATO NA LIMPYO PA).

Be careful of our kababayans. Yes, there are some of them who charge too much. Kaya nga I don't usually shop at stores owned by Filipinos. If I want to buy Filipino goods, I usually go to Chinese stores.

$500 for deep cleaning!! That is way too high, considering that it was only 6 months since your last cleaning. If I were you, find someone who does not charge too much...Caucasian, maybe. :)

Good luck.
