Dentists

[Johnsong1966]

Hi all,

Moving to Jakarta in July and always have problems with my teeth they get very sensitive. My question is how are the dentists out there. Should i get everything checked and sorted kind of preemptive before i come or are then dentists good out there?

Thanks

Gavin

Hi John,

Since you will be working in BSD City, most of your activity will be centered there. They have an international standard medical facility there named EKA hospital. Even though you might think Jakarta is nearby, it is not a trip you typically need to make. Jakarta is a crazy and crowded city. Best save your trips there for clubing not a dentist appointment. :) Check out www.bsdcityonline.com (http://www.bsdcityonline.com) for more information and some photos of the city.

Nice thanks for the information there and definetly sounds like just a trip for the clubs :)

Dear Gavin,

Sensitive teeth can be caused by incorrect brushing method or enamel abrasion, hope you don't have any cavity because it's another reason. A simple precaution you can do at home is by using a good sensitive toothpaste. The result occurs within several days and if you still feel unsatisfied, you can come and visit us and let us help you. We normally take care of our patients with sensitive teeth problem with some special treatment.
