We go to MDC, on King Abdulaziz Street opposite to Silver Towers
Ph 867 1828
Appointments are quick and so far experience has been better than Aracmo's dentist.

We go to the Rabwa Dental Clinic (behind Holiday Inn Hotel) 013-8592929
They are open on Saays and have hours till 9PM. They also have a Pediatric Dentist there for kids and we haven't had any complaints.

It's a pain to schedule appointment with Aramco dentist for things as simple as cleaning. So I am now considering going to an outside dentist....
How expensive are they, especially compared to Aramco dentist?
I assume you pay 100% out of your own pocket. Is that correct?

Correct. You also pay out of pocket if you go to the Aramco clinic (and they charge in USD). The ones outside charges in SAR and they are generally cheaper

Thank you all for sharing information, I checked out saad hospital website and called in, the hospital has a good reputation in general, I enquired about cost, they say they have four types of fillings ! three hundred somthing up to eight hundred something, first time I hear of such thing! root cs around two thousand , crowns two thousand up to four, dont know how that compares to others. I dont mind as long as I find the best dental treatment in the eastern province

Do give the Dental Clinic another try. The doctors are fantastic! I took my daughter for an appointment last week and when I wanted to schedule the next one - there was an opening the very next day!
We were not always so lucky, at times I waited for a month (or more!), but I am very pleased with the quality of the dental care.
