Dental stuff

[valarltd]

My insurance covers check ups and cleaning completely, and has a $50 deductible, After that, it pays the first $1000 of dental expenses. And for big stuff? It pays 10%.

What I have: 3 abcesses, 2 broken teeth, 1 cracked tooth and a LOT of cavities.

What it's going to cost:
Fillings, $185
Deep cleaning, crowns and root work: $3450, out of pocket.

OUCH!

Dr. R. is good, though. Nice man, gentle big hands.
And he runs a "pay as you go" system. If I can only pay for one filling, I can get just one done.

Also: dental chairs are quite comfy when cramping

I need to go and visit the dentist too, and we do have dental treatment on the NHS here but finding a dentist that will take you is near impossible, they don't make enough money that way. sad to say we can't afford it if not on NHS at the present.
