Dental Treatment So Expensive

My regular dentist had a tiff with the head of dentistry in NUH. So he left and he is now working part-time two days a week in Paragon. He now charges $1200 for a crown instead of $500 in NUH. Root canal cost more than $1000 now that I recall as I have paid three times. It used to cost $500 in NUH as well.

His fees have gone up by two and half to three times just practising in a private dental clinic. I am with him for so long. I am most comfortable with him as he is very detailed and have very good troubleshooting skills.

Taking care of teeth is very important. I need to look for an alternate dentist for simple work.
