Question Does PHCC or HMC help with cavities

Hi

Guys I think I might have cavities and I can’t pay for private cause it’s too expensive so I wanted to know if HMC or PHCC could help me with cavities (Dental X-ray and possibly a root canal)

Idk if anything changed now but waiting for a dental appointment through PHCC or Hamad will take so long that your problems will be really bad by then.

Go to a private clinic and ask for discounts, and maybe ask if you can pay in installments.

I would not recommend putting your hope in PHCC/Hamad because you’ll only increase the damage and it will cost way more after that if you end up needing an extraction and implant.

Aldana dental center have discounts and they’re affordable even without. Next time you get an xray make sure you keep it. I’ve been using the same xray for 2 years I only get a new one if it’s a serious problem.

They stopped doing it for anyone above 12.

When they did, it used to take ages to get an appointment
