Default recommendations for stock brake pad replacement.....(m)....

basically, my front right brake squeels like a stuck pig after a few stops whenever the outside temp is over 65 deg.f.
dealer applied dressing to pads last year when this happened and squeel stopped for all of one or two days.
i will be bringing the car in soon for scheduled service and will probably do a song and dance or dog and pony show to get them to replace the rotors and pads, but if this does not solve the problem i'm hoping that an after market pad that produces less brake dust will.(i'm guessing that the build up of the semi metallic compound used for the pads is causing the squeel when i apply the brakes)
btw, the rotors do not appear glazed and i am not overly hard on the car (at least compared to some of what i read about my fellow forum members)
suggestions / recommendations?

Default My carbontech pads from frozenrotors.com are quiet and no dust!

I bought them as a package deal so I can't remember how much just the pads were but as I remember they were pretty reasonable.
