Dr. Pomade Posted November 13, 2005 Report Share Posted November 13, 2005 Didn't you inquire at the dentist's office? That's where I'd start. I remember back in college when I didn't have cash or insurance, and I opted to have teeth pulled rather than filled. Completely ghetto, I know, but a lot cheaper. In my case, the teeth needed root canals, not just fillings. It was like $80 to get a tooth pulled; to a poor college kid, that was way more appealing than spending like $800 on a root canal. The teeth in question were way in back, wouldn't do anything cosmetically being gone, and wouldn't mean much functionally to not be there - thus, an easy decision for me. Those fuckers got pulled with the quickness. As for fillings, I'd guess from $100 to $300 for each - that is a complete, uneducated guess, mind you. Also, remember, you'll have to pay for anesthetic as well, which, if I recall, isn't cheap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

evan9381 Posted November 13, 2005 Report Share Posted November 13, 2005 i think my dentist its like 140/each. if youre looking for someone, jeff santilli in gahanna is pretty good. then again, ive only been to my childhood dentist (17 years) and this guy. but when i went to the "real" dentist for the first time, it was not nearly as bad as i thought it would be Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nitrousbird Posted November 13, 2005 Report Share Posted November 13, 2005 I'm getting a very small cavity filled on Monday (my first ever, I'm pissed), plus a couple bottom teeth filed down slightly, as a couple were very slightly chipped on the top. I beleive the total bill is only around $100; mind you, I've already had my cleaning/inspection done. Oddly, my insurance covered all of my previous visit w/ no copay, but barely covers any of my visit on Monday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trouble Maker Posted November 13, 2005 Report Share Posted November 13, 2005 Go to the OSU dental school. If you can get in there it's really cheap. That's what my rents did when we were younger and money was tight. Even gave my mom some gold bling in her grill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
