10.12.2010 | 掠水牙醫

我咁大個人, 應該係第一次牙痛!! 幾個月前開始有過敏症狀出現架喇, 但係自己又衰懶理, 結果噚晚終於發作喇, 搞到成晚冇覺好瞓, 真係慘絕人寰!! :(

一晚折騰之後, 今朝即刻打電話預約, 中午咋咋臨去睇牙醫.. 原來下頜右邊最後第二只臼齒有三個窿, 牙醫話補下就好.. 結果求其一補, 再畀包抗生素同止痛藥, 前後唔到半個鐘, 就咁承惠三百大元喇, 真係O大嘴一頸血囉當時, 唔好去搶?? 嘩, 原來牙醫咁好賺, 早知我都做牙醫好喎~~
i guess this is my very first time suffering from toothache.. actually already felt the symptoms of sensitive teeth couple of months back, but my bad, i just ignored it.. for goodness sake, it finally attacked me yesterday and made me sleepless for the whole night long!! :(

after a night of torture, i quickly make an appointment with the dentist and went over to the clinic during lunch time.. it was because of the three little holes on my bottom-right last-second molar tooth, and the dentist just said it'll be fine after filling them up.. so she did and prescribed me some antibiotic and painkiller, in just less than 30 minutes.. and holy j, i was charged RM300 for that (eye-popping and jaw-dropping)!! gosh, i didn't know dentist can make such easy money, else i think i'd want to be a dentist already~~

  3. What RM300 for fixing one tooth? Got mine done few weeks ago two filling (RM70 ea) and one extraction (RM160) of wisdom tooth for RM300. My oh my think the pain got transferred to your pocket now.

    ReplyDelete
  4. Think dentist charge by the number of holes drilled and not per tooth basis?

    ReplyDelete

    ReplyDelete
  8. Best part was my wisdom tooth got nothing wrong but the dentist said better to get rid of it coz its redundant. But when ask why redundant he said to ask God woh.

    ReplyDelete

  19. 这几天我都在牙医诊所流连。主角不是我,是我的妈妈。她牙龈痛,前后看了两位牙医都宣告无效。妈妈并没有蛀牙,所以昨晚牙医建议她到另一诊所求医。
    22号,我会去洗牙。

  21. 有冇聽過台上三分鐘,台下十年功?

    ReplyDelete
  22. 牙醫學生讀書辛苦,讀完出來開高價,系咁既啦。。。

    ReplyDelete
  26. Eeeeee! I hate dentists! They hate me too!

    ReplyDelete
  27. They caused me pain, so I hate them! I haven't seen a dentist for 10 years, so they hate me!

    ReplyDelete
  28. I took pain killers when I had toothaches! Poor slum dogs sure have no luxury to see dentist. Just let my teeth rot and drop!

    ReplyDelete
  29. Which dentist did you see? Leng chai or Leng Lui dentist?

    ReplyDelete
  30. Thambee, you ate too much Chennai sweet cakes la. No wonder sakit gigi... Must tell Kamala ~ Less Sugar!

    ReplyDelete
  31. I think Thambee never brushed teeth for a long time! Kamala told me you used the same toothpaste since your wedding day 8 years ago! Gosh! Thambee hear me???

    ReplyDelete
  32. Arumugam will sponsor you mouthwash to clear your plaque! If not Kamala won't kiss you again ever!.... Cheh!

    ReplyDelete
  33. I hope the dentist didn't faint when you opened your mouth! All the curry and onion smell. OMG!! ~ faintz ~

    ReplyDelete
  34. How come your receipt in the post got blood stains? Thambee vomited blood after see the RM300 bill ka? Aiyoyo!

    ReplyDelete
  35. Dentists make alot of money. In Singapore, that's probably why the local university limit the intake to 40 places a year - so that they don't undercut each other's prices when they start opening their own clinics.

    It's a conspiracy, I tell ya.

    ReplyDelete
  36. 我跟你一样的,都不去理,等到问题来了就。。。

    迟点要安排去检查和洗牙了。。。
    那你现在好点了吗?

    ReplyDelete
  37. 哇,那么贵的,待过几个地方还没听说过那么高价的补牙费啊!

    ReplyDelete
  38. so expensive. The one that i went to do filling for 3 tooth would have been around rm150 to rm200 max

    ReplyDelete
  39. 是咯選錯行業了嘛>.<" 牙醫絕對是最好賺的行業,我要去付錢買痛嗚嗚可惡啦~~~~

    ReplyDelete
  40. Oh my! Literally very "ngah toong" as well. LOL! I believe toothache is one of the worst aches anyone can have. Glad for you it's fixed. Eating is heavenly again, eh?

    My guess is dentists make more money than a GP perhaps(?) and their schooling takes less time than a GP's too.

    I have a colleague who was dead-against his daughter from taking up dentistry and wanted her to be a regular doctor instead. He gave in finally to the daughter's strong will and she is now a practising dentist which I'm sure her dad is smiling from ear-to-ear seeing how well she's doing. So, remember, send your child to dentistry school. hehe..

    ReplyDelete
  41. 阿哈哈。。。可怜,你也被折腾了Huh? 凡是医都好赚得啦,希望他的补功不错咯。。。

    ReplyDelete
  42. Oh yes I always spend a fortune whenever I visit my dentist =D

    ReplyDelete
  43. I heard that many dentists are very kaya. A beauty makeover involves the dentist job to polish and whiten your teeth even when there's no teeth pain. But for RM 300.00, we can do a root canal treatment here. If your teeth pain worse, the dentist will recommend a root canal treatment, later it will be crowning, and later implants. All these involve $$$ ('000's) if you still want to save your teeth. Of course pulling it out will save further cost but maybe cause the jaw to cave in a bit (like Abraham Lincon?), maybe no more handsome lah. These are all the 'warnings' I get from friends and the dentist, so now I brush teeth or guggle my mouth after every meal ;-P

    ReplyDelete
  44. thats y i tried as hard as possible not to visit dentist ...lol
    take care :)

    ReplyDelete
  45. OMG!! RM300 is really very expensive for just filling holes in a tooth.. RM300 can buy a lot of things already..

    ReplyDelete
  46. but then just think about your tooth being treated and there's no more toothache, perhaps you'd feel better of spending that RM300?? LOL~~

    ReplyDelete
  47. hmmm, i must agree with you then that dentists really can make very good money and easily too!!! but too bad, i'm not a dentist.. :(

    ReplyDelete
  48. @ Merryn:
    yeah, now i had it and i know how bad it is.. can't even really bite and must only eat things that are soft and doesn't need to chew much.. anyway, it's getting better now and hopefully it'll go back to normal soon so that i can enjoy my food!! oh yeah, please make Ethan a dentist in the future, hahaha~~ :D

    @ Bananazஇ:
    yeah, it's RM300 for that little treatment on my tooth.. and i guess perhaps they charge by the number of holes and not by tooth.. wow, that's really good money eih?? somemore i went to the clinic inside MV, no choice, that's the only one near my work place, and i guess they charge more because of their "monopoly".. hmmm, i was thinking even extracting the tooth is cheaper than fixing it~~ errr, actually i have no problem with my wisdom teeth, because i don't even have one, hahaha~~

    ReplyDelete
  49. @ lina:
    oh yes oh yes, i went to Pristine at MV.. no choice because i was desperate for a dentist and that's the only one near my office.. wow, i forgotten the dentist name, but i remember i went into Room 3.. wow, you also kena RM170, but a lot cheaper than mine.. i guess they count by the hole and not the tooth right?? expensive!!! having paid RM300, really burn my pocket..

    @ bluedreamer27:
    oh, this is the very first time i have toothache that make me sleepless and having fever!! that is really not good at all.. errr, the Dentist is a middle age Indian lady, haha, i won't call her pretty anyway.. so, i guess you should advice your younger siblings to go for dentistry so that they can make more money in the future, haha..

    ReplyDelete
  50. @ 穷光蛋市长:
    現在才來轉真的來不及了, 其實我也知道他們是專業的, 不是隨便拿個鉗子就可以當牙醫的.. 你說那些拿著鉗子幫人拔牙的, 叫黑社會~~ :D

    @ Mei Teng:
    it was my molar teeth and not wisdom tooh, anyway i don't have a wisdom tooth yet, haha~~ :p

    ReplyDelete
  51. @ Zazabong:
    yeah it's really a nightmare, i've been tortured by the toothache for days that i can't enjoy my food~~

    @ edward:
    冇辦法, 公司左近得佢一間牙醫診所, 真係可以為所欲為囉.. 三百蚊補一隻牙, 真係唔好去搶??

    ReplyDelete
  52. @ Tekkaus:
    wah, you so far away by the time i go to your place my toothache already tortured me so badly already.. sleepless night and cause me slight fever also, that's how bad it was..

    @ wkw:
    嘩, 看了兩位牙醫也幫不到你媽媽?? 看來要做點小手術把牙根拿掉了, 這樣就一勞永逸, 以後都不會痛了.. 我下個星期也會去洗牙..

    ReplyDelete
  53. @ khengsiong:
    冇喎, 我真係唔記得之前有牙痛過, 以前都係細路甩牙啫.. 就係唔明囉, 補隻牙竟然可以收我RM300, 唔好去搶?? 公司冇畀dental benefit, 所以呢RM300要自己啃~~ :(

    @ kyh:
    i am using sensodyne leh..

    ReplyDelete
  54. @ iamthewitch:
    yeah, now i really know how expensive a dentist visit can be.. RM300 for just a tooth treatment, wow, next time make your kids dentist better.. haha!!! :D

    @ Twilight:
    sure the dentist hate Arumugam because they will always have to suffer from the bad breath Arumugam give them whenever Arumugam opens the mouth.. haha!! Letchumi also told Thambee that Arumugam never brush teeth and never know what is a toothbrush and toothpaste too, actually Letchumi always feel so bad after kissing with Arumugam, you remember why Letchumi always excuse herself to toilet after Arumugam kiss her?? haiz, but still Letchumi loves Arumugam so much.. Thambee really pity her a lot, and still Arumugam want to leave her alone in Thirachirupalli waiting.. yeah, Thambee really vomit blood when saw the bill, RM300 you know how many pieces of cheese chapatti Thambee can buy?? aiyoyoyoyo, really almost fainted and wanted to give the dentist all the curry i've eaten so far~~ :D

    ReplyDelete
  55. @ Shingo T:
    that's so unfair!! and when doctors and clinics are always over supply, why are they so nice to the dentists?? i really cannot accept filling the holes can cost RM300, it's ridiculous!!

    @ eleven:
    我就是從來都沒有去看過牙醫, 這次有事才第一次去罷了.. 現在感覺好多了, 至少沒有那麼痛, 可以睡得著覺了.. 你要去檢查嗎?? 還是不要等到有事才去喇, 那太遲了~~

    ReplyDelete
  56. @ bluecloud:
    對囉, 簡直嚇了我一跳!! 我還以為補牙最多是幾十塊錢的東西呢!! 怎麼知道要了我三百塊!! 過份~~

    @ Medie007:
    yeah, so do you think you want to change to dentistry instead?? :D

    ReplyDelete
  57. @ Small Kucing:
    yalor, that's very expensive leh.. but then i guess it's because i went to the one inside MV, so they charge more expensive.. but no choice leh, that's the only one nearby my working place~~

    @ bluesky:
    是囉, 本來都還好, 補完牙之後要付300塊錢, 真的變成牙痛了!! 嗚~~ 叔叔好可憐哦, 白白不見了那麼多錢~~

    ReplyDelete
  58. @ HappySurfer:
    nope, still feeling a little pain if i'm chewing, so still cannot enjoy my food totally, have to always bite using one side.. you are right, RM300 really is literally "ngah tong" lor, haiz!!! yeah, now that i really know how easy a dentist can make money.. the risk is virtually none compared to a normal GP, and work is relatively simple and fixed by appointments but then the charges is comparatively higher!! why didn't i ever thought of taking up dentistry back then?? haiz~~~

    @ Casendra:
    對呀, 被牙痛折騰了一個晚上, 都睡不著覺哦, 很可憐, 還搞到有輕微發燒.. 還有那RM300簡直就是造成我的心疼~~ :(

    ReplyDelete
  59. @ Ayie:
    hmmm then i guess this is something very global huh?? dentists around the world really make good and easy money..

    @ Autumn Belle @ KDP:
    yeah, i really think dentists are all make very good and easy money.. they will always recommend some other services after each visit, and for sure that's how they will happily charge you.. RM300 just to fill the holes on a tooth is quite ridiculous right?? but no choice i was already there and desperate for some treatment.. i've actually thought of extracting that tooth out, perhaps it'll cost me only half of that.. errr, so now i think i have to seriously take good care of my teeth already, or else i'd be very sad but the dentist will be very happy..

    ReplyDelete
  60. @ Danny:
    i also never visited any dentist before this.. but too bad, this time really painful and no choice i have to.. and somemore inside MV, because that's the only one near my working place~~

    @ victor:
    yeah, i was really shocked when they billed me RM300 for that, i thought the most will be like RM150, but nope!! that was far beyond my expectation.. well, like you say, i try not to think about the money but really at least i'm feeling much better now.. yeah, we must regret not being a dentist yeah?? hahaha :D

  61. 冇辦法啦,每人嗰牙只有一次,如果健康甚至會跟足一世。難得你牙痛,仲唔斬到你一頸血咩?!

  68. 哈哈 一年裡有多少次會看牙醫? 難得去看牙醫,他當然是狠狠的砍 :P

  71. @ 海市蜃樓:
    唉, 有係嘅, 一般人真係有幾何牙痛吖?? 所以一有機會, 牙醫肯定有殺錯冇放過啦, 呵呵~~ :p

    @ Kelvin:
    yeah, i really think charging RM300 for filling holes on a tooth is too easy money.. i am so bad luck..

    ReplyDelete
  72. @ 单身汉:
    所以他們有收信用卡囉.. 我也是要刷卡, 因為根本沒有足夠現金嘛..

    @ foongpc:
    wow, never seen a dentist before?? then you must take very good care of your teeth.. or else, will end up like me, hahaha~~ :D

    ReplyDelete
  73. @ Ashley:
    哈哈, 先不要那麼開心, 最重要還是要好好照顧牙齒, 可以的話, 每年都做一次牙齒檢查.. RM300真的很牙痛囉, 如果平時有檢查, 我覺得不會到這個地步了~~ :(

    @ bluesky:
    哈哈, 對!! 而且要希望那個牙醫的孩子不會再當牙醫, 然後就可以charge到他們夠夠, 報回這個仇~~ :D

    ReplyDelete
  74. @ Lexi Map:
    我一年裡面也不會生病很多次, 去clinic看個醫生拿幾包藥也不用RM50, 就這個牙醫那麼貴!! 以後真的不要去他那邊了.. 嘩!! 你是一次過拔掉全部4顆智慧牙才一千大元吧?? 好恐怖!!!

    @ Caroline Ng May Ling:

    ReplyDelete
  77. @ CH Voon:
    yalor, after paying that RM300 my tooth is even more painful lor.. haha, i think all dentists have expected that, and really don't think ugly mouth and teeth is something terrible.. wow, you better go see dentist soon, don't wait till it's too late, because the later the more expensive the treatment is lor..

    @ mNhL:
    yes!! imagine paying RM300 just to fill in 3 little holes, very unreasonable right?? actually i still need to suffer from the pain for another 3 days after the treatment.. :(
