I have just come back from the dentist and I feel that she just ripped me off.
She told me that I needed 5 fillings and said she would do them all now
For 2 of the fillings they need to be drilled and the other 3 were just that she added some paste near my gums it all took about 20 min and she charge me €250 euro and that was under PRSI
I have raised this with people that I work with and they have said that they have left here as she is a money grabber. Some of them had gone to another dentist for second opinion and found out that she had told them lies about what they need to get done.
Not sure if I should name her but anyways the dentist was <removed>
Was I ripped off?

No I locked your last thread because it should not have been moved here from consumer issues. The forum charter forbids discussion of relative cost in order to avoid the "rip off threads"

From the charter "4) No threads about the relative cost of dental treatment allowed. Post in consumer issues ( http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/forumdisplay.php?f=580 )"

Always ask the price BEFORE treatment, no point complaining afterwards.
