Today I went to the Klinik Perggiian Cempaka at Taman Cempaka, PJ Near LDP there.

After treatment, they charged me for RM260.00.

RM80 for Extraction of Molar tooth
RM180 for Scaling (2 times, this time the first time).

Actually I came here 1 week ago because I got tooth ache problem. They charged me for RM50 (Medicine)
to stop the pain and kill bacteria in tooth.

The scaling charged too high because the nurse I have gum problem.

What I really don't like is the attitude of the nurse towards me and my other friend. When we asked her why the price so high, she
said let her talk first. It is just like the Miss LISTEN published in newspaper recently.

Am i being charged too high for that kind of treatment and treated in bad manner as a patient or customer ?

the dentist office (Kepong shoplots around housing area) I went to has a piece of price list (price range) of different procedures. I remembered the price is RM80-130 for scaling depending on dirt accumulation. I guess mine was quite clean they charged me RM80 only. But the detist found a small hole in the wisdom tooth and need tampal-tampal, total charge RM160.

must see what kind of tampalan lo. . . if mix powder with water and then tampal to your teeth, then is too expensive.
Unless it is a composite which i read the dental articles in some newspaper.

the denstist scratch the surface of the tooth, then suck out all saliva & blow on the inside of the cheeck to dry that area, later she tampal the 'milky white stuff' on it, shine some light on it, done. She told me I can eat after 30 minutes. Dunno whether it is composite or not.

Most probably is not the composite because normally they will syringe something blue into the mouth, rinse, air dry, brush something smell like lemon onto your teeth, then only they put the composite.

What u told me here the procedure is so simple.

I have just seen the youtube video video

It is a commercial video but it gives me some idea.
