Why the FUCK would you do that?

My Dentist is super chill and nice. He gives me great treatment and sometimes gives me fillings that would cost 80€ for free. We all call us by our first name (Me, the Dentist and his Dentist Assistants) and are just vibing. I would feel so much shame if I break something at his office for the sake of goofing around for a video.

Huge variance it seems in the thread. I've had to pay over $200 for a composite filling.

Oh absolutely. I had that done for $50. It’s almost like America is larger than Europe and has different COL in different areas. Not to mention different laws and regulations in different states, along with different employers who value employee benefits in different ways since no two people are the same. Anyone who goes on here to expect to puff their chest up or look down on someone else over this shit is insane.

I just paid $20 for a filling after insurance and it was $100 before that, so, uh...
