He can keep the rotten teeth. No need to extract. Just let it drop naturally.

Because he went to a dentist so that the process would be relatively painless.

He could have saved money by doing it himself.

Your friend has awful dental hygiene, to have to extract three teeth at one go.

If you compare with 3 shots $150 at Geylang, of course it's expensive. But a dentist needs to be a top student in his cohort, and has to spend 6 years in medical school. So it's normal to charge $150 per shot, compared with your Geylang FTs $150 per 3 shots. Your Geylang FTs do not need to ace in school examinations. Instead of 6 years in medical school, they only need 30-day social visit pass.

Once again this poor Sinkie is an embarrassment to the nation. This fucker does not understand our medical facilities are to serve foreigners with good paying jobs. Sinkies should just use a pair of pliers to extract themselves. Which part of the PAP message you still do not understand?

He should use a thread and fire to extract his tooth.

I see it's been a while since this was posted, but just want to ask—did anyone try public polyclinics for extractions recently? I heard the waiting time is longer, but pricing might be way lower unless it's a surgical case. Also, curious if anyone compares pricing between neighborhood clinics and chains like Q&M or iDental? Seems like the range is quite big depending on the location and procedure.

I had two teeth pulled last year, and it cost me about the same. Private clinics usually charge more, especially if local anesthesia or X-rays are included in the fee.

Fluoride itself will damage the teeth gradually. Unless one have so much money to spend on dentists to have high standard of living (help them to buy condo and luxury cars), it is better to save that money for other uses
