I'm so lucky as a Malaysian and blood donor I get free dental treatments. I've done root canal treatment, fillings, cleaning in multiple sessions and paid nothing.
Most business premises...since the invention of electronic door locking system.. keep their doors locked. That's to keep SALES people without an appointment.. out.
Seven likes in the first 20 minutes! I’m grateful you are all watching and enjoying the video. I had to edit some out because of copyright stuff but I’ll be more aware next time. I kept more chatting time in this vlog instead of some other content. Next vlog coming Friday or Saturday. Either the casino, ioi mall, or something random. Haven’t decided what to do yet. Still loving KL! Thanks again. 🎉
@@ChrisNomaly sorry for your dentist appointment its kinda expensive in that area we dont usually go there we prefer government dentist and its just rm1 😌
I had 3 fillers done, 1 big one and 2 standard ones. It was 650 ringgit. In kl normally higher so yeah u werent overcharged. Stii relatively cheaper than abroad
I just go to the government clinic. They are well equipped, know what they are doing, and NOT incentivized to sell you services you don't need. 😅 It's usually like RM2 - 5 (US0.50 - 1.00), but if you're on holiday, you may not want to spend the whole morning waiting for your turn. Though the wait is not as bad as at government outpatient clinics. PS: these rates are for citizens only. Foreigners get charged a lot more. But still no where even close to what you get charged at private clinics.
a standard price in pj and subang, taman tun, bangsar mont kiara area.. becoz the location rental is very expensive.. if u are in other areas its definitely cheaper
MYR150 is about the standard cost per tooth for filling at these kinds of clinic. The buzz in buzz out at the 1st clinic is for safety & security (some have this most don't).
Hi Chris....congratulation on the collaboration.As usual interesting long video.Malaysia is one of the best country in the World for healthcare tourism.
Totally agree there! Thanks a lot for the nice words. They picked someone else which was expected. The next guy that followed me looked like a hardcore camper plus they had auditions all week. It was a good experience for sure.
I have had similar problems in the states. Our systems are bogged down and desperately broken in parts. Especially medicine. Thanks for the insight! I knew I wasn't the only one.
He's paying full price. No government subsidy. No insurance. But Malaysia does have government dental and outpatient clinics, which aren't free, but the fees are nominal. Most don't require pre-booking appointments, though some do. However, there are usually long waits. No days, but hours. As in you go there, take a number, and just wait and doze off. Think of that Mr Bean skit.
I don't think it is expensive, cleaning at $150 is quite standard, permanent tooth filling is ranging from $130 to $600 per tooth depending on what kind of material. Temporary tooth filling is ranging from $60 to$120.
Yea I figured it would be easy to find someone to take me right away. The second place seemed really good also but I’m satisfied with the results from Dentist Leslie Yong. He knows his profession well.
@@ChrisNomaly Wonderful. There are lots of interesting areas in PJ, it's actually a city by itself, used to be the first industrial zone for Malaysia. PJ is progressing fast like KL. Few plants for manufacturing goods still exist in the old town of PJ, but since the last few decades, almost all states in Malaysia have their own industrial zones. 😀
Jobs give you decent dental insurance that covers cleanings, although procedures are still pricey. I got a couple fillings once and remember paying about 50% of the bill and still being out like 4 or 5 hundred.
How did you end up paying RM750 for cleaning? I'm a Malaysian. Am blown away by that. I pay RM6 at a Gov dental clinic to do everything..including Xray if need be.The RM6 is just for Inland Revenue. But of course it could take months to get to my date of appointment.
Yea, good advice. As I was walking out my mind was telling me.. okay 400 maybe 500 so the 750 was just a bit higher than expected. All good though, three days later and they are holding up well.
i m not lucky last week at hatyai , +covid , the hospital just take e blood test , swab test and drip 50ml and medication charge on me rm 1000 😢 if in KPJ malaysia service are 7x better and faster and cheaper and around 6 tp 7 hundred only
Most Malaysians will have their dental checks & filling for free, you just need to pay RM5.00 only for registration at a government clinic..except for a private clinic which will definitely be very expensive...
Yea, I’ve heard it’s subsidized very well. I was walking around downtown today and found a large kitchen giving away free meals. It’s nice to have many functional programs that actually work for the people.
@@patrickjebireden1286 i agreed. that clinic was lying about the initial price and the doctor recommended doing unnecessary additional stuff to jack up the bill.
Tak mahal sebab klini persendirian kan,kawasan pulak mmg sewa situ mahal.. kalau kita memang akn cari kerajaan atu separuh kerajaan la.. saya pun cari Lincoln University sebab lebih murah dari klinik persendirian,tampal gigi 40,cuci gigi 80,crow 200
A ride up there would make for a good time. I am considering transportation options. A Grab there is easy to find but getting back might be a challenge.
It depends on whether you live in KL or not. In KL most good and qualified dentists charge that price for the services provided in the video. It's considered normal price actually.
@@MM-tj3koI said that if he told me it was 600 I would not have done it. I agreed to the procedure but didn’t ask until it was time to pay at front desk. I expected a little lower but it’s fine. Lesson I learned is always ask how much before the procedure is done.
I was surprised when it was time to pay. Although I agreed to have the coating on, I didn’t think to ask price until it was time to pay at the front desk.
@@ChrisNomaly You can ask the price before they do any extra work and decline for those extras if it's too high. But 150 Per tooth is on the high side, Dentist around outer Klang Valley areas are much cheaper. I would recommend checking google reviews before choosing one
Try coming to Indonesia, you definitely won't regret it. And there are more tourist destinations to visit, the best culture and food paradises in the world than Malaysia. Indonesia has 17,508 islands spread from Sabang to Marauke. There are so many Indonesian tourist attractions that you can visit, such as: Bali, Raja Ampat, Thousand Islands, PIK, Labuan Bajo, Borobudur Temple, Prambanan Temple, Mount Bromo, Bunaken, Komodo Island, Toraja, Bandung, Jogyakarta, etc. Indonesia has many original cultures and the most delicious food in the world such as Rendang, Soto, Sate, Martabak, etc. Indonesia has a Jakarta-Bandung fast train with a speed of up to 354 km/hour with a track length of 142.3 km. Only 30 minutes to arrive in Bandung using the Indonesian fast train Whoosh. Many Indonesian foods and Indonesian culture are claimed by Malaysia such as Rendang, Batik, Wayang, Reog Ponorogo, Angklung, Pendet Dance from Bali, Keris, Pancak Silat, etc. Food with so many flavors, variants and spices only exists in Indonesia. Malaysia always claims everything from Indonesia, because Malaysia does not have a diverse and numerous culture like Indonesia.
Oh shut up! Nobody cares Indonesia! Tesla refuses it, NVidia refuses it, Google refuses it. The ordinary tourists refuse it. Overpopulated island od Java with bad infrastructures, eternal traffic jams and congestions, too many motorbikes infesting the streets, lack of respect of traffic rules among Indonesians. Bragging about 17,000 islands which are badly infrastructured. And it's outrageous to claim that Indonesian cuisines are better than Malaysian ones, tourists do not buy this exaggeration. Malaysia is the real food haven. No, we do not claim Indonesian foods. Those cuisines were brought by ancestors of Malaysians from islands that today make up Indonesia, just as many cultural aspects of Indonesia today were brought from outside to Indonesia by ancestors of Indonesians.. These cuisines today rightly and legally form part of Malaysian culinary culture, recognized by UNESCO. Btw, RENDANG came from India to Sumatra, a form of preserved dried curry brought by Indian Muslims to survive the long sea journey from India to Sumatra. Batik existed much earlier in China, Japan, Africa etc before making its way to SE Asia. Same thing as ancestors of today's Americans brought cuisines to America form Europe, like pizza and hamburgers, which today have evolved into American versions of pizza and burgers. But you do not see today Italy (originator of pizza) and Germany (originator of hamburger) accusing Americans of stealing their food culture. Because Italians and Germans are highly intelligent people while YOU Indonesians have extremely very very low IQ that equals that of MONKEYS, that is why you Indonesians are screaming like monkeys that Malaysians steal your culture. There is NOTHING original about Indonesia. Everything about it - from its name, its language, its flag, its national ideology of Pancasila, its Garuda etc etc etc are all taken from others. But Indonesia just love to falsely claim that it is the land of everything original. Go back and sulk in the jungles of your mostly undeveloped 17,000 islands which international tourists do not care to come because the infrastructure to reach these so-called "beautiful islands" (according to YOU) simple does not exist.

@@ChrisNomaly
Even Medical Sales agents need appointment.
@@ninjaturtle6106 Haha nice. You got that right!
Tooth filler is highly recommended to prevent further tooth decay. The price is in the ballpark for Petaling Jaya area.
Yea for sure. I appreciate your comments on my videos. My goal is 1k subs by the end of the month. Maybe..

I have a dental insurance by Medlife in Texas. The first cleaning is free, the second one probably has a copay around $75.

@@ninjaturtle6106 I paid cash. You can see at the end of the visit I used US Dollar and Ringgit combined.
Always ask the price first bfore allowing the dentist to proceed.

My dentist only charged me RM 1, but I had to make the appointment earlier.
Checkout Starling Mall in Uptown Petaling Jaya
I walked through before opening time which was cool they had doors open at 8am. 😎
Good day to you.
First comment. Cheers!

Yes, medical services in Malaysia have some of the best value in the world from my research. Especially for foreigners paying out of pocket.
I think money well spent at tht dentist..peak traffic hour in kl starts ard 8 am actually
While you are in Uptown, try Village Park restaurant's Nasi Lemak. Thats among the best.
I see they have many locations with authentic Malaysian food. Maybe I’ll try. Thanks for the suggestion.
@@ChrisNomaly
Make it happen bro.🤲
Mr Irwin had an appointment.
Haha that he did. And I think he was late ⏰

Dont forget to try the ramly burger while you in malaysia
I made a TH-cam Short about it. Check it out.
For dentist and haircuts I go back to my hometown of malacca.. it’s cheaper
I’m sure that city is less expensive. A grab driver told me to go there. Maybe I’ll visit
Any plans on visiting genting highlands?
A ride up there would make for a good time. I am considering transportation options. A Grab there is easy to find but getting back might be a challenge.
