Hello All,
Sorry for the long absence again. I was busy and i was sick.
About 2-3 years ago, I remembered sharing a post on how pain my teeth was - the molar. The root canal treatment would be about $2K plus and i cant use medisave. I decided to live with the pain, took consultations with 4 dentist and the last one gave me antibiotics. It subsided. However somewhere along after that, my molar broke into 2.
I left it alone until recently. My gum swell so bad that i had to visit a dentist.
The result?
An extraction. It cost me $620.00 payable by medisave - i hope its 100%.
The initial cost was $70 and $50 for administration charge. total cost $740!
I already fork out $120 in cash, claimable by company is $70. I hope the balance is medisave approved.
Today i went back to remove the stitch. Guess what? the dentist did the cleaning, declare that i have gum disease and it will take her 4 weeks to get everything out of my gums at a cost of $800! :(
Now should i proceed or should i get a 2nd opinion?
I know i did not take good care of my teeth and i tihnk i better start now, considering im 30 and they said all sorts of illnesses do leads on to other diseases in life.
But i seriously need an opinion from anyone of you familiar with this. Anyone can help to give that 2nd, 3rd opinion?
Do let me know by commenting on this post OR email me at aidil_edzwan@hotmail.co.uk.
