Default Dentist treatment in SA,

Hi,
Can anyone help with cheap dentists in SA. Had an abcess in UK and had strong antibiotics. Dentist was rubbish back there and said he could only extract tooth or advise me of a private dentist... that was without any x-ray...
decided to see how it was when we got out here. arrived yesterday and the abcess has returned. looked for dental insurance but all these take a year before treatment for root canals etc... anyone found or know of a good, cheap dentist that will be able to help?

Thanks

My dentist in SA was Dr McLean on Main South Road at Morphett Vale.
But all I ever needed doing was a full clean and scale every six months, lucky me . That used to cost me $90 though so I can't help you with x-rays or root canals, so sorry

I've got a brilliant dentist and he's at Golden Grove but he's private and don't know how much he'd charge without insurance. Essential Dental, Dr Vince Parletta. Maybe they could do a payment plan?
