White filing by a Torrance dentist
I have just moved to California from Japan three month ago to start up my business. I live in Torrance city in So Cal, where a lot of Japanese live. As soon as I arrived here, I got a teeth ache and went to a dentist in Torrance with my new health insurance. The Torrance dentist gave me a new filling to my teeth and I saw in the mirror the filling was white. As health insurance in Japan does not cover white filling, I was so embarrassed that I had to pay by myself perhaps by my English communication. No, white filling is a very generic treatment here and is covered.
