not that im tight-fisted with my money but i try to spend it wisely and ive been calculating the potential cost of the spouse visa, air flight and priority service and looks like its gonna be over £3000 ...GULP... my wife chipped her tooth lastweek and it made her feel self consious, so i asked her go to the dentist and i will send money over if she needed it..anyway upon closer inspection it looks like she needs more treatment then I realised..apparently she needs 2 replacement crowns at the front teeth which i've noticed were becoming slightly discoloured, crown for the front chipped tooth, a bridge at the side, and few others hahahaha anyway we have been quoted £400 on one side im little annoyed with an unexpected expense on the otherhand i kind of feel fortunate it happened because i recently paid £400 for one tooth to be capped in the UK.. but im not sure what kind of quality of work you get in the phil..
Go on admit it you're tight Seriously it is wise for your good lady to get any dental treatment done in the Philippines, the wife's always tries to get her teeth seen to when she goes back to the Phils. As we all know, it costs a arm and a leg for dental treatment here in the UK, remember to register the missus with a dentist here in the UK when she gets to the UK, NHS or private. Dentists are very good in the Philippines.
my mrs needed a new set of gnashers--just before she came over. cost me £200 for a full set. cost X 10 in the UK.
If she knew the dentist (or by referral), it would be better to get them there. It is super cheap and reliable.
I had my teeth filled in Manila a month before I flew to UK. Expensive there but surely 100X the price in U.K. Of all the visa expenses, her well-being shouldn't be least of your priorities.
