#17717 Washington Dental - Bridge

Posted by psmith2600 on 21 June 2009 - 01:52 AM

I just wanted to send in a trip report for Washington Dental.
I got to the office at 7:30 am today they were not officially opened yet but they let me in. I explained that I needed a Bridge done, the person there looked at my teeth and explained how they operate there. They started a movie to watch on the big screen TV and I sat down expecting the customary long wait at the Dentists office.
The Doctors started arriving at 8 and I was the first patient.  The Doctor looked at my problem took x-rays and after a few minutes they told me that I needed a three tooth bridge and gave me a price of $585.00 (US).
Which includes:
- x-rays
- cleaning
- upper and lower mouth molds
- tooth preparation, making room for the bridge, drilling out the mount points, etc.
- temporary bridge
- mounting the permanent bridge


My US Doctors price
$1250 after my 500 dollar deductible

Washington Dental is very clean (far cleaner than my Dentists office) and I had no issues communicating with anyone in English. The Doctor was able to answer any question I had and before they did anything they waited for my approval. The work was fast and as far as I can tell the same thing as my Dentist.
One other item of interest. While all of the Dental assistants in my Dentists office are all women and are pretty in one way or another (basically no hogs). The Dental assistants at Washington Dental are all hot as hell.  wink.gif They all look to be 18-21, they all come in waring light pink, tight scrubs and greet you with an smile and soft brown eyes.  Sorry about that digression. Clearly the HR department targets a specific demographic. It was a good thing they were drilling out some teeth. It was all I could do even with the drilling, not to pitch a tent. rolleyes.gif
So far I have not had any up sells. The temporary bridge is still in place and I am scheduled to finish the rest of the bridge work next weekend.
They also pay for a yellow cab to and from the border and your parking on the US side. I am only out of pocket so far the cost of the work. (Not counting AB the night before.)

If I do get any up sells or other issues next week I will re-post and let the forum take revenge for me.
Sorry about the long post.

Thanks
