quality service

This is a tough one brother, and frequently asked about all sorts of services. In my experience, service referrals are usually done through friends and family. It is really tough to find reviews online or else where that can be trusted. Even family referrals are hit and miss. When we built out house a relative was our general contractor and the foreman worked for him. We had no problems, so our neighbor hired the foreman for their project and he disappeared with the payroll  So you can never really tell.

Now dentists are a dime a dozen, our first was a relative who was terrible. I took matters into my own hands, went down the street, talked to a couple of other dentists. Settled on a young lady that seemed to know her business. She performed several extractions and made dentures for me and so far I am very happy.

Now as to implants, Using logic I would expect that dentists in the high end areas like Makati or Alabang are your best bet. I doubt a barangay dentist would have many clients or experience.

I know that this is not what you were looking for, but almost any type of service here has one general rule...……….YOUR MILAGE MAY VARY!!!!!!

Good luck

You can try to look into Gerochi (Makati), they're reputable and I personally visited them (Dr. Tan) and felt very comfortable there, she was also honest and didn't try to do the money grab tricks many other dentists do.

Although I actually only did a very minor procedure with her, so do ask around more. Prices for Gerochi are on par with other so called high end clinics.

I find root canals to be insanely expensive in the Philippines and you may want to travel to Vietnam for that. Even with flight costs and visa you're still saving a ton.

I would like to recommend Tooth and Go Clinic. Its located in BF Homes, Paranaque. I have been there several times and Always been happy with their work.

I have not done implants but fixed several crowns. Many foreigners go to them, and from my understanding the clinic are specialised in doing impants. They are not the cheapest option but they are good.

Better off in Thailand or Vietnam if you're having a lot done, much cheaper for the same/better quality.

I hear this a lot, but I wonder if the reality matches up when you consider the number of trips needed if a lot of treatment is required.  Fair enough if you are making a holiday of it.

 When you need a trusted dentist that tells the truth the best Advice I could ever give is grab his balls, squeeze a Little and say, Hey! we are not going to hurt each other are we? If it is a Lady dentist then I will leave that, for Mr Joker Arizona @Arizona Kid to answer  Me? I am too shy

I'm certian that people do have special.places that they acquire, I will wait and see what does come up, I had mybwife go to an unknown dentist and he messed up my wifes crown and it's not what she expected, so I believe Good dentists are hard to find,,, I've looked online and seems like theirs a few that have Good ratings,,, need more time, and thanks again,,,,

 

Jim Dones, yes I seen a review with that firm, and looked up online at Makati, so this does confirm that dental services would and could be acceptable,,, thanks once again, we do have plenty of friends at Manila, but everyone always says they dont know,,, must have infallible teeth, strong as titanium,,,hehe,,,thanks,,,

I think they call it a titty twister.   One possible problem, what if she likes pain?
