Botched dental job

A POPULAR dental center in Metro Manila, which claims to be the “Dentist to the Stars” (a.k.a. “DS”), recently botched a dental job on one of its valued, albeit unlucky patients.

Biz Buzz learned that this was not the first time that this well-known dental center, with several branches around the city, has been the subject of complaints.

DS’ dental team claims to have world-class facilities and even counts among its patients several celebrities in the country. Thus, the unlucky patient, who is a scion and belongs to society’s crème-de la crème, felt deceived.

The story is that DS assured the patient that his dental problems would be fixed in a few sittings. But to the patient’s horror, after being charged millions of pesos—and after more than 5 months of treatments—his dental problems became worse.

The patient reportedly suffered more pain and discomfort in the mouth. Some of his temporary crowns even fell off. Talk about bungled procedures.

Needless to say, we expect the well-off patient to seek redress with the courts against DS, owing to the erratic and expensive dental procedures. Daxim L. Lucas

in my opinion, it is difficult to "pass judgement", when only one side of the argument is presented.
i would like to know the other side of the coin. it's only fair.
even as i know that this is unlikely to come to pass.

i have heard this "dis-satisfied customer" scenario several times already.
many times, it was simply a mis-understanding of expectations.

Blind items... the ultimate in corporate sabotage.

Also, millions? Did the patient want diamond-studded titanium teeth?

Possibly if that person had all of his teeth fixed. I have one tooth extracted (thankfully molar so not visible) My dentist was charging over P100k for an implant and that was around 10 yrs ago. I don't mind if my teeth alignment will eventually move because of that space.

implants are really expensive. but they're cheaper now than they were, 10 years ago.
but if your dentist is belled and whistled (de campanilya), yes, this will drive up the price.
it's not fun, eating solid foods without molars. i recommend we do everything possible, to save our teeth. but we won't really miss them if we ate thru a straw.

and yes... titanium implants are not cheap.
