    WOW! That is a huge difference. On the hi-caps receipt it had them down as fillings, so I'm guessing the item numbers are key here Nothing like a bit of profiteering hey? Maybe that's why they didn't worry about me paying the gap LOL.

    ETA - Jols, just out of curiosity I phoned our dentist's surgery and said my child needed fissure seals and how much would it cost, and I was told $60 if there was no fillings needed otherwise it would be more. Now I know he didn't need fillings because after the checkup, the Dentist said to me that his teeth were fine, but he had deep groves in his 6yo molars so he would seal them to prevent decay etc. So I was definitely scammed LOL. But I'm thinking that I was charged more because he knows we have PHI.

    Sorry to take this off track Mummydreamer!
