I <3 Dental Insurance..

[rebels]

This is the week I'm having most of the work done in my mouth.

In my life, I've had about 5 mouth surgeries and 7 teeth pulled. My teeth used to be SO jacked up. 4 years braces, with 2 year pallot expander before that, then the permanent retainer for 2 years.

Now, I am having my wisdom teeth taken out and one of my teeth reshaped. I also need 2 small fillings from where part of my tooth was chipped away in an accident years ago.

Just for my work today which included the normal cleaning, two fillings, and partial reshape: $1,767 total. I paid $156.80.

Next week I have all 4 of my wisdom teeth coming out and a surgical movement of a tooth (no idea how that works?) done and it's supposedly about $300 per tooth at the surgeon I go to.. so thats $1,500 for the four + the movement.. total for me is $102.50.

I didn't know shit like this was so expensive. Dang, it's well worth it in my honest opinion. <- yea thats how my smile looks now.

If you haven't booked time off of work, you'd better. You'll be illin' for a while.

[Spartan1987]

True, but the meds make it all worth it. They gave me Vicodin back when I had mine done, and then I was done. Plain and simple.

[badmanferg]

i got mine through my employer but it sucks ass b/c theres a $10K cap on it

Yeah, I've had a few mouth surgeries before so I know how it feels. I'll be fine after a few days.

I'm covered under my mom's works insurance. So her work covers it.. it's coo.

Not true at all.


I had all 4 of mine out, and they told me not to drive and i drove hope after. As long as you keep it clean, it will heal great.

Then again I only go to the best doctors etc around.


maybe in canada they fuck with you

lmao

It wasn't HORRIBLE, but a lot of my baby teeth took a while to grow in so they pulled those out and then my pallot expander was another story.

After I had my braces and everything off, a tooth started growing in the roof of my mouth which is very rare and I had to have that cut out and stitched all back up and I was fine the next day. I could't eat hard stuff or anything, but I was out driving around and what not.

It's not the end of the world, but it sure as hell helps me financially that I don't have to fork out the thousands of dollars for those sons of bitches!

[phatdoughnut]

i had to have a mouth guard and my insurance paid for it.. 500 bucks!

[rebels]

You can see in the first two the bottom wisdom tooth is growing in sideways causing my bottom teeth to shift. Thankfully my teeth are still straight and I'll be fine.. cant' wait to get these sons of bitches out!
