Dentistry Undergraduate treatment

This is more information regarding dentistry undergraduate treatment.

Procedure on first visit:

You need to approach me to book an appointment at least 5 days beforehand.
We will first carry out a dental screening which will be checked by the professors, to determine the suitabilty of the patient for student treatment. This is to ensure that the students will not treat patients whose conditions are beyond their scope, or requires special attention( eg those with health probs)

This is done and endorsed before we can start treament.

Pricing:

Dental undergraduate treatment is much cheaper than outside, about 5 to 8 dollars per filling, 5 to 6 dollars for scaling and polishing respectively.
Consultation is about 3 dollars as compared to 15-20 dollars outside.
It is cheap, as we are not undergraduates practising under the liscense of our professors supervising us. Professors will also assess our work to ensure that no substandard work is delivered.
Pricing varies according to the type of treatment, whether lab stages are involved, as well as the type of materials used.

Supervision:

We will be working under the professors' supervision, thus each step will be checked before we are allowed to progress further.
This is also to make sure that we do not produce substandard work.


Patients requirements:

The main criteria required of patients are:

1. Flexibility with time
2. Ability to wait for longer time
3. Able to come for multiple treatment

Reasons are:

1. flexibility with time so as to ensure that treatment does not clash with their work etc. And as our clinical time slots are fixed in the timetable, we are unable to change them to suit each and every patient, thus we seek your understanding.

2. Ability to wait because we need to spend time waiting for the professors to come over and check our work. Each treatment slot is about 2 to 3 hours( max), but the actual time will vary depending on the work being carried out.

3. Able to come for multiple treatment as we will be carrying our more comprehensive treatment ( eg, we will be treating gum probs of the patients before we do their fillings or dentures etc so as to ensure that the health of their teeth are gd enough for more complex treatment.
This is also to ensure the longetivity of the restorations done.It is best that the patient be able to come for all the sessions, but fret not, we will try our best not to let a patient come down for more than 1 visit per week.

Subsequent visits will be arranged with the patients.thus, the best candidates are housewives, retirees, self-employed personel.

if it's possible, i would like to ask for all of your help to help me spread the word around to your parents, relatives friends, your parent's friends etc etc.

I really appreciate all of your help.

Thank you very much.

If there are people who are interested, please pass me their contact numbers and i will talk to them more about it.

Alternatively, they can approach me via email or hp kuanyee.wong@gmail.com or 91597464
