My wife's sister is a dentist in Santiago, a damn good one. She practices alone with two assistants in a pleasant, nice office off Restauracion downtown. I've been to her for cleanings and a cracked crown with top results. I never asked for a discount because rates are low enough. Besides, she's a professional with staff to support, office overhead and a family to put through college.
Alida had a broken filling and had to go see her a few weeks ago. Since we were going anyway, both Mom CB and I thought we'd get our teeth cleaned at the same time.
While we were waiting, a client was leaving and we heard strong praise about how his teeth looked. Later I asked the doctora what that was all about. She said he was happy with the results of her teeth whitening techniques.
Oh, really? I have nice teeth but after 50,000 cups of coffee over 45 years they were a couple of shades less white than when I was a kid. So I asked about the process, cost, etc. She quoted a price that included a cleaning and three treatments. The price was very reasonable..a deal, actually.
So both Mom CB and I chose the whitening (she's 86 and a lifetime tea drinker).
I am here to tell you we are GLAD we did. 3 treatments and I could not be happier. My teeth look 50 years younger right down to the gum lines & between teeth.
The cost? $RD8000. $US185, including a thorough cleaning. What a deal! The results: my teeth are 4 complete shades whiter than before, and they weren't at all bad then. VERY pleased.
So if you're interested in having your teeth whitened for a reasonable price by a skilled professional, drop me a PM and I'll pass on the info. She speaks good enough English to offer communications comfort.
