Say Cheez!

sLeePy has finally gone to get her teeth done! :) I've always had yellowish front teeth which my childhood dentist attritbuted to the fact that I have eaten too many antibiotics. So when I was in JC or wassit Uni, my mum brought me to the then Pegu Rd Clinic to have my teeth capped. The dentist didnt give me a v white cap so as to match my other teeth or @ least that was wat he said.


Fast forward many years and I went to the dentist last May & the horrid dentist scraped of the capping!!! n my teeth was soooooooooo ugly!!! I mean I had the intention to change liao but he didn't have to scrape it off mah. He also quoted me a price of about $6/700 per tooth and coz I wanted to do 4 teeth it was gona cost me $2k plus! Thus I decided to wait till I got my bonus this year to do. But in e meantime I had found this other dentist recommended by my colleague and they were only charging $350 per tooth! Almost half price!!! :)


Coz the receptionist thought I wanted to do crowning, she said I had to go for 3 visits before the whole process cld be completed. Not wanting to waste anytime and coz I wanted to do the teeth b4 the photoshoot in June, decided to go down on Thurs since I was off anyway. Went there (& this dentist was sooooooooo much nicer!!!) n was told that I didnt need to do capping; I only need to "laminate" my teeth and he could do my 2 front teeth there & then! So 20 minutes later I came out w nice white front teeth!!! *mighty happy* & it only cost $40 per tooth!!! Dar initially thot it was expensive until I told him that the other dentist wanted to charge me soooooooo much more for capping my teeth which I didn't need; he also agreed it was a gd price!

So I'll be goin back to do my other 2 tooth and also to polish my teeth n get my retainers done! Juz hope that this laminating will last me for many years still :)
