** Ritjie Rihartinah, Jl Pratama No 81, Nusa Dua. 771 324.
** Dr Sucipto, near the Bali Bank in Jl Diponogoro, 150 A32/34, Denpasar. Ph 222 541. Very good dentist with up-to-date equipment and quite cheap but in a very scruffy looking shopping area. Appointments required and work guaranteed! www.drsucipto.com. E-mail sucipito-angga@yahoo.com. Make sure that you do have an appointment or you will probably be shuffled of onto a lesser person if some '05 reports are accurate. Some of the 'lesser persons' reportedly created havoc with at least some straightforward repair work in early '06. In '07 there were more reports that were not complimentary also!!! Even a claim that the receptionist worked on teeth! and the original quote was greatly exceeded.
** Also Bali 911 Dental Clinic in the Bali Mall Galeria, Lantai Dasar No1A/08. It's a couple of doors away from the BIMC. This clinic is open from noon to 9 pm. No appointment is required. English is spoken - clearly. The equipment is as you would expect to find in the best practice in your home town, in fact the system of taking x-rays and showing them instantly on a screen next to the chair is much better than my dentist at home. The place is spotlessly clean and there is a gentle and caring attitude from all the staff. In '07 the dentist here was Rudyard Salindeho. (0361) 766 255 or 744 9911. Mall Bali Galeria near Planet Hollywood. (A home quote of Aus$2554 for one traveller was about Aus$600 at this clinic - '05.) In '07 we took our beach friend Monica to Rudy for assessment and then treatment. (Monica is 32 years old, a mother of 3 and had never been through a dentist's door in all her life. The required work was general cleaning and one filling !!!) The reason we took her was that her teeth were far too large for her tiny mouth. They were overlapping and growing at odd angles. This had embarrassed her all her life to the extent that she rarely smiled and covered her mouth with a hand when she laughed. On the first visit her teeth were cleaned, a filling done and one tooth extracted. Cost Rp1.3 million or about Aus$170. The second visit a week later was for 3 extractions to make space for the displaced teeth to move into over time. Cost Rp1 million or Aus$120 - total less that $300 to give her a new outlook on life. We were all overjoyed and wait anxiously for the free 3 month report of progress, hoping that a small brace will not be required. You too can make a huge difference to someone's life in Bali for a relatively small cost. Do it !!
Rudyard is recommended by BIMC. http://www.balidentalclinic.com/ or look for their advertisement in the Bali Yellow Pages.
911 Dental Clinik is also recommended for urgent work and maintenance such as a cut and polish. Often appointments are not needed for small jobs. Equipment and practices are of international standard.
** Also Dr Retno (female) opposite McDonalds on the By Pass, next to the bread shop on the corner. Highly recommended by the Australian Consulate and not expensive by overseas standards, She will refer you for extractions. Very polite with good English and a sense of humour.
** I Wayan Parwata was recommended for emergency work in March '06. Ph 62 361 222 541 or 081 338 415 724.
** A new dental site on the net reflects the growth nature of the dental treatment business in Bali; www.ivodent.com.
** In the Tuban area look for Dr Atmaja studied and worked in the US for 10 years before returning to Bali to practise. Very good and very accommodating in an emergency - and aren't they all good when you've got a tooth ache? Modern equipment. 6 fillings plus clean and de-scale, 1.5 hours, Rp210,000,000 or about Aus$300. Claim on your travel insurance. You do have travel insurance don't you???? Further good reports from satisfied customers in '07. Jl Dukuh Indah No55 Kerobokan/Umalas near the stables. Ph 0361 847 5179. Open Mon to Fri and Sat by appointment. Any good driver will find it for you.
** Dr Indra Guizot. Jl Pattimura 19 Denpasar. Ph (0361) 222 445 249 749. e-mail iguizot@indosat.net.id. Highly recommended in '07. Fixed up work done and botched by another popular dentist. Very straightforward in describing your problems.
