Hello,

never been to any dentist after primary school. finally got the courage to visit one. seriously afraid to visit the dentist as I had a bad experience during my schooling days. I believe I should have gum issues as I have the symptoms when I googled.

I actually looking at private dentists. did a read up on some "high class", like those at the novena specialist center. seems like they are able to provide a bit more assurance and comfort. the price is also a killer so I decided to google more.

came across this parkway dental, $190 package with unlimited consultation, x-ray, and 2x scaling and polishing. seems decent but I am not sure if gum treatment will be expensive.

I am also looking at unity dedicate, the price seems more affordable.

Usually they'll post their stealth link inside the quoted material in their own reply, but this spammer must have gotten distracted by something shiny. No need to reply to yourself instantly, otherwise. Just edit the post. I would suggest OP keep Googling to find more gum issue symptoms.

Maybe the point was to simply plug Parkway Dental, but the insta-self-reply is odd.

Unique post, usually it’s some other health related questions. Dental care is a big one, but other than going to routine care to the tops 3, dr, dentist, eye Dr, they all do affect health and wellness. You can’t eat, you’re not going to grow….

I'll assume this is a real post for a moment....

Shopping for a dentist based upon price is a horrible way to go. Those larger dental groups have dentists shuttling in and out all the time, usually of dubious quality. I think it would be better to rely on Yelp to find a reputable private practice dentist rather than a large, nameless group. After you've researched and narrowed it down to 3 or so reputable private practice dentists, then there's nothing wrong on calling them up, figuring out the price and going with the cheapest. Quality care from an experienced dentist will save you money in the long run.

There is no way this post is genuine. Y'all are too nice. Why ask this on a meathead board? Plenty of dental or hypochondriac sub-Reddits. See this same thing a lot. New accounts that are just awkward or off. Post weird shit. The they'll show up later and deliver their copied and pasted payload. But given that instant reply-to-self, they forgot to edit the quote.

Also, take a look at this. If this was genuine, I'd think they'd either have found their answer by now or be asking about dentures instead.


Probably just padding post count for future use.

Do people actually get paid to spam like this? I wonder?
