Well my front tooth was knocked out in the winter of 1998, so i had to get a root canal and a crown done...that was taken care of when i was younger for free...Now i am 19 and in need of a replacement crown for my tooth..I call up the dentist and the price is well over $600....then i call the insurance company and they said im not eligible for coverage on the replacement til September of 07!!!!! That coverage in 07 is only 50% so i've been paying roughly $7 a week since 90 days after i started working at my current job so roughly i've paid them $300....and to get my tooth fixed is prolly gonna cost me around 800 out of pocket...unless i can wait another year and a half

Cliffs: Tooth needs replaced should i wait til 07 or do it now without insurance help

 

teeth are overrated

 

just keep the toof out. real gangsters dont care about teef.

 

Damn your insurance sucks ass, i got metlife dental. I had my wisdom teeth cut out, cost about 1700$ insurance paid for roughly 1450$ of it. :exnbp:

 

Ask you dentist about cash discounts some do, some don't

 

Well this is the insurance that comes from where i work from...its bunk as hell...and crowns are expensive...I mean my tooth isnt about to fall out or discolored or anything i was told it need to be done before i turn 20.

 

Maybe go in to a dentist and see if he thinks it needs to be replaced? If you were told like 8 years ago that you'd have to replace it now, it might still have a year of life left in it.

 

I feel your pain. I'm getting 2 crowns done next week and it's gonna cost me 900 out of pocket. I had my wisdom teeth done in december and it only cost 260, WTF!? I have delta dental.

 

boo fucking hoo. i pay 282 a month for insurance out of my pocket and i have no dental. just medical. everytime i go to the dentist its 80 bucks for 3 cavities it was 120.

for a single person the plans for dental suck and its not worth it.
