His bite no good, only front 2 teeth and back 2 plus 2 teeth biting. Rest not aligned.
Prob needs jaw surgery.
But he just did invisalign cost me S$9k to correct his teeth alignment leh, why they never align his teeth properly?
Dentist referring him to NDC to see if need metal braces, jaw will grow till he is 25-30 years old. If braces cannot correct then need jaw surgery. Costs S$100k in private.
Sigh, why dental so expensive in Sg

He does complain that he chews mainly on his back teeth, that's why got mild crack on molar tooth that needs crowning.
Anyway, checking if his Enhanced Incomeshield Basic under NTUC will cover or not.
Sigh.....Like chiu need landed, then continue to GCB mah :s12: ....
Most dentist job for scaling no need a dentist, they just do a technician job. Not do cure like a doctor. So, jaw surgery needs a surgeon. But $100,000 is really overcharged.

I think last time my bilateral mastectomy with recon would have cost S$200k in private.
I go under TTSH subsidised B2 class paid only S$17 in cash, rest subsidised and company pay. Total was about S$40k plus I think.

I checked the policy details, dental is excluded unless traumatic dental problems. Sigh...

Hmm, my hubby also had bad experience. They couldn't extract his tooth fully, it fractured and needed surgery. But very cheap.
How old is your son oh? Young enough to try kkh or maybe other general hosp?

Before deep scaling, they made me signed the teeth will be drilled off, the gums will be drilled off hence receding gums. Now I know can diy with own dental kit. No anesthesia, know when to stop & tartar still can come out. The deeper they drilled, the nerve exposed, hence sensitivity. Can also drill so deep till a lot of stuff stuck & become inflamed, infected, bacteria eats roots...Teeth drop. No dentist will tell you since it's their rice bowl.

Diy as in waterpik?
Quote from: 老曾记 on Apr 14, 2025, 08:28 PMDiy as in waterpik?
Profesdional Dental mirror & those stainless dental picks or scrapper. Bottom easy but top hard. Is if someone can assist top, can see those white stuff & scrap out. Now I sourcing for overhead mirror & can lie down & do the top by myself.
Maybe waterpik pick can be like the dentist drill but I use the manual type.
