Alice Taylor from Jericho, Oxford got her fillings done in Cambodia after struggling to find an NHS dentist in Oxfordshire.
She travelled to Phnom Penh for her mother Anne’s 60th birthday party in April. The 29-year-old decided to get her teeth done at the same time to save money, after a private dentist in Oxford quoted her £80 for a single filling. Ms Taylor thought she needed two fillings but ended up with 10, leaving her with a total bill of $200 – about £125.She estimated that she had made a saving of £675 on the possible £800 bill she could have faced from a dentist in the UK.
Alice Taylor says, “I think it is a fabulous saving and it almost covered the cost of my return flight, which cost me about £700.
I was going to Cambodia anyway so I thought I would get the dental treatment done at the same time.”
