Private Dental costs

Hi I am in uk...Can anyone tell me if I have been over charged..I have a private dentist..had a small filling without anesthetic..also a scale and polish it took 35 mins... £129 is this correct price. Diana

In the US, that would be similar ~$190.00. Most people here would use their 3rd party dental insurance to pay for it. Unfortunately in the US, seeing the dentist for routine care can seem like a rip off. For medical, I had to pay ~$900 for my daughter's ear wax removal (took 3 appointments and I have a high deductible only medical insurance).

That is a reasonable cost for private work here. Surprised you were not given an injection. I hope it's a good dentist that was recommended to you.
