15k for wisdom tooth and molar extraction
Hello. I need an advice. I was quoted by my (long time) dentist ₱15k to have these two removed. Wisdom tooth and a cracked molar. She prescribed me meds in preparation for my surgery this Thursday.
Ngayon, my mom advised me to have a second opinion since baka raw may cheaper options. Nasa isip ko, if may cheaper option man, what would I say to my dentist? “Sorry doc, sa iba na po ako magpapabunot.” She’s the mother of my close friend, at magaling naman siya. I had the same surgery sa kbailang side naman (2 teeth din and ganyan din orientation, see 2nd pic) before way back 2023 pa, and 15k siningil niya, after 3 yrs, 15k pa rin singil since close friend ng anak perks.
So here I am asking for thoughts, especially sa mga nakaranas na ng gantong situation. Should I get a second opinion and if cheaper (and theoretically mas magaling) doon na lang?
