dental service - tooth extraction

[prettyfish]

Hi,

I'm a newbie here in Singapore and I am still looking for a job so my budget is pretty low. I really need to go to the dentist as one of my molar has to be extracted.

Anyone who can recommend a very cheap yet good tooth extraction? I am staying at telok blangah now so would appreciate if can be found nearby.

and just to have an idea, how much does the tooth extraction normally cost here?

much of thanks in advance.

cheers

I've used these for extraction, cleaning and reconstruction of dentures with satisfaction. They are reasonable and found all over the Island.

Of course you can go down town to the upmarket places and pay double or triple the cost. Up to you.

Only a partial Matney, only a partial. I broke my two front ones in half on a fiberglass diving board when I was 17. After destroying 6 sets of caps due to a terrific bite, I had 'em pulled when I was around 25. Been wearing a partial ever since. Would love to get implants but the cheapest I could get in Singers is around 1600/tooth. At 60, why? A bridge? no way, I've never had a cavity yet so why destroy two teeth to put in a bridge.
