How to cheap cure your teeth in New York
'17.02.2021'
America is famous for its expensive doctors and lawyers. Their services are among the most expensive in the States. Health insurance is not difficult to get or buy, but it does not include dentist services. Separate insurance is required to cover them. I didn't have her at work, and I didn't really want to spend $ 5 on a dentist, so I started looking for something, writes Andrey Boychuk in an article for Immigrant porada.
I found a public dental office (to be honest, I didn't find it, but my wife), where you pay $ 15 per visit. Well, as a normal person, of course, in my head I went through all the variants of doubts: how reliable there is and, in general, whether this person knows how to treat teeth.
$ 15 for a visit to the dentist ?! This is not money at all if at least $ 200 is taken for the seal. By the way, by a visit to the doctor, I mean everything that needs to be done with one tooth (remove or treat).
My experience of visiting a state dentist
Only on the fourth visit, they began to treat my teeth there, because on the first one they scanned, on the second there was diagnostics and identification of problem teeth, on the third - cleaning.
So I have already treated the 3 tooth and, like a guinea pig that always tries something new, I can easily say that community doctors are not very different from private ones, which, of course, are much more expensive.
The equipment is all new and modern (believe me, I know, because I go to the dentist as on a holiday). Dentists are young, but professional. In short, I am satisfied. Therefore - if you do not have money or do not want to spend hundreds of dollars on these services, go to such a department in your area and treat there.
