dental prices are a joke. Per capita GDP means nothing

News

Saw the ABS data today.
They say the recession is over. GDP growth is back up.
Chart looks grouse ay.But I am not celebrating.
Can we get dental covered by Medicare now.Sydney prices are a bloody joke.
My dentist has a three month wait. Or I fork out 400 bucks for a checkup.So I just wait for my business trips.
I go to Zhuhai every six months. I get my teeth done at Vickong.
Why. Because Vickong is half the price of Sydney.
Plus I can book the same day.GPs and emergency are mostly no dramas.
But dental not counting as healthcare is crazy.
Cost of living is wild. Where do these GDP numbers actually go.If the economy is improving then fix my toothache first.
Then we will talk.Anyone else flying overseas for dental work.
Or am I just conditioned by Sydney prices. Surely not just me ay.
