About two months ago, I noticed my gums were bleeding while brushing my teeth. At first, I thought I had brushed too hard and accidentally injured my gums, so I stopped brushing aggressively. However, after a few days, my gums became red, swollen, and slightly painful. That’s when I realized the problem might be more serious, and I decided to see a dentist.I visited a private clinic in Mong Kok. The environment was nice, but after a basic examination, the dentist told me I had periodontal disease and needed immediate treatment, quoting a staggering HK$20,000. The price shocked me, and I told them I needed time to think about it.Back home, I researched periodontal disease extensively and asked friends for recommendations. Surprisingly, six out of ten people recommended Vickong Dental in Shenzhen. I checked the address and found it was only a 10-minute taxi ride from Huanggang Port, making it very convenient.灬 On the day of my appointment, I barely had to wait before starting my treatment. The dentist was highly professional, and after the examination, the diagnosis was the same as in Hong Kong: I had periodontal disease and needed treatment. However, the quote was only CNY 4,000, significantly cheaper than in Hong Kong! I decided to proceed with the treatment at Vickong Dental.The treatment was divided into several steps. The first session involved deep cleaning and scaling. It was a bit painful (after all, the tartar was hidden beneath my gums), but the dentist applied medication afterward, which quickly eased the discomfort. I was nervous during my first visit, but after a few trips between Hong Kong and Shenzhen, I got used to the process. Now, my periodontal condition is well under control. It’s rare to find a dental clinic that offers such affordable prices and high-quality service. However, since there are still some differences between the two places, many people might need a referral from someone they trust.
