Dear ASS editors,
Dentist charged me unfairly!
Unfair dental charges by T32 Dental I brought my daughter for a routine cleaning of her teeth. It was our first visit to T32 Dental Pearl at JCube Jurong. We were not told that there would be a consultation charge prior to the treatment. Despite an unexplained waiting time of 30min, we were slapped with an unreasonable bill of $170, $70 for consultation + $100 for cleaning.
We find these charges rather unreasonable especially when all the dentist said was reminding my daughter to clean and floss properly. Do patients not have a recourse against the professionals for such unfair charges?
I find it difficult to get good dentist nowadays. My mum went hospital make dentures since early Mar this year. She run numerous times till now still cannot get it fixed properly! At the end refer her to one of the specialist Hopefully after one or two sessions it can fix well! I was told that making dentures is not profitable as a lot of processes involved. Doing teeth whitening, extraction etc can make easy money. Better to take gd care of our teeth n pray hard we don't need dentures when we are older...
