If I shop around for the best price but I suspect that the best price is offered at a less hygienic place, what should I do?
In this scenario you should use your common sense. Better prices always sound attractive, particularly when money is tight. However, you are the only person that can say whether a place looks hygienic and your safety should be the primary focus of your decision in having a procedure carried out; not the price. If your common sense tells you that the place does not seem clean, hygienic or professional then you should not be swayed by the offer of a cheaper deal.
The truth is that places that are offering these incredibly cheap prices are probably the same places that are acting immorally in terms of putting their patients' health at risk. The impact on your health if this all goes wrong could be much more worrying for you than the impact on your bank balance if the procedure costs you a little more.
If a piercing, tooth gem or dental grill is something that you really want to have, you should save up the money to have the procedure carried out properly rather than finding a cheap alternative that you may well end up regretting.
