Have you been talking to your friends about the woes with your teeth<\/strong>, lately? That\u2019s what I had been doing, not so long ago.\u00a0A few months back, 2 of my molars suddenly started giving me a hard time. The good old dentist advised me to get root canals but the price he quoted for the procedure was as painful as my aching molars.\u00a0I was looking at paying around $6800. The check-up cost alone was $305.\u00a0I tried to handle the pain with home remedies but no luck.<\/p>\n

While I was researching for cheaper ways to do it, I was surprised to find that the public health system has a four-year wait even on periodontal work. Wow!!! Some of my friends, based on their experience, advised me to go overseas and get my dental work done at a fraction of the price<\/strong>.\u00a0They suggested Thailand, India or Indonesia (Bali).\u00a0Bali<\/a> was closer to Australia than the rest.<\/p>\n

Fact is that most people with dental issues increasingly go to Bali to get their teeth done<\/strong>, especially cleaning, whitening and implants. Not to mention the $5 cocktails, massages, facials, manicures and pedicures at ridiculously low prices. In short, the research and recommendations made it clear that Bali was the right place to go.<\/p>\n

So, one fine January morning I landed at Bali airport and after dumping my luggage at the hotel, headed straight to the dentist. A local friend who spoke highly of her had already booked an appointment for me.<\/p>\n

The clinic, quite the contrary to the dirt lane it was located on, had an impressive environment with friendly English speaking staff and lots of good quality modern dental equipment. Everyone in the waiting room I talked too had praise for the dentist.<\/p>\n

Over the two weeks sessions with the pragmatic dentist, I learnt a lot about dentistry in Bali, which I\u2019m sure would be handy for anyone hoping to get some dental work done in Bali.<\/p>\n
