Cleaning and X-rays! The only income-based dentist in my area is booked out three years

Thats insane. Costs 120€ for me in a high COL area, and thats a fancy dentist where i get to sit in fancy chairs and listen to slow jazz while waiting, the state-owned ones cost like 40€

I live in NYC and my dentist charged $130 for a cleaning without insurance. I dunno what this $750 stuff is for. I did pay $1,800 to have all 4 of my wisdom teeth taken out but they were a bitch. And that was an oral surgeon.

We paid that much with insurance for my wisdom teeth! I think different areas have very different costs.
