V4junkie Posted June 10, 2009 Report Share Posted June 10, 2009 So, for reasons I won't get into here, dental was removed from my plan and I can't get dental put back onto my benefits until open enrollment in January. True to Murphy's law, I have not one but two dark spots on my molars. I haven't had a cavity since I had my baby teeth! Anyone know where I can get this done on the cheap? Like by a dentist in training? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

juliejuliejulie Posted June 10, 2009 Report Share Posted June 10, 2009 The people were all pretty nice, but I think they were sorta amatuer or else i had some pretty deeply rooted teeth. It took several hours to get two teeth out and I left looking like I lost a fight... My whole face was swollen and bruised, but it healed. If you are just going to get fillings, im sure your experience will be way better. Total for 2 teeth yanked, it was like $450ish. I bet yours would be less as long as you dont get ex-rays. Good luck man! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gruss Posted June 10, 2009 Report Share Posted June 10, 2009 Just dark spots?? if they don't hurt and they arent full blown holes add dental on open enrollment day and set an appt for jan 1, 2010...well maybe Jan 2 if your dentist parties hard.

V4junkie Posted June 10, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 10, 2009 Well it's been a little while since I looked at my teeth closely. The teeth look pitted, might be holes but I have no point of reference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
