How do I find a dental company that covers adult braces?

I have dental insurance in cobra but it does not cover adult braces. I am looking for a dental ins. that individuals can buy. I also heard there is ortho ins. as well. I have decided to try to buy the ins on my own because most group plans do not cover adult braces. I am not looking for those discount programs. This is a really hard topic to find on the internet! Any help would be appreciated.

Ph a broker, and ask them to find one for you or simply phone a few insurance companies

Is it possible to get a bank loan to pay for dental work?

I need a lot of dental work and im sure i am going to be looking at a hefty bill.Probably between 3 to 6 grand.Which i do not have.sure i do have a good job and i do have dental insurance but it isn't that good.
--------------------
You would have to apply for an unsecured personal loan. There are no "dental loans" per se. An alternative might be to work out a payment plan with the dentist. Another alternative, if your condition permits, is to stretch out the work over multiple years - that might result in your insurance picking up a larger total. Remember that most dental plans have annual ceilings on payments.

Does anyone know how to get a cheap dental cleaning in San Diego?

I don't have dental insurance or anything. I think my teeth are in decent health, but I want to get a routine cleaning and checkup done. Any suggestions?
--------------------
Southwestern College in National City has a free dental hygiene clinic. All services are free and you would be helping a student meet their requirements for graduation! Win, win! They are closely supervised by faculty and have to do a lot of preparation before they are allowed to work on actual people so you don't have to worry about some one being totally clueless! The only down side is that sometimes it takes a little longer since they are students and have to go through a lot of protocol. If you are interested call (619) 216-6665

Can my ex wife make me pay for half of my kids braces before insurance?

My Ex is remarried and carriers dental insurance on our kids through her work insurance and her new husbands insurance. She is stating that I owe half of the amount for braces without her new husband using his insurance. I told that is fine if she doesn't submit it to his insurance, but if she does and his insurance pays then I should only owe half of the out-of-pocket costs. Does anyone know if I am right?
--------------------
Actually you need to check with the provisions of your divorce decree. I found out that since braces are "cosmetic" that my ex-husband could refuse to pay for any of it, which he did. I paid for all out-of-pocket expenses for my son's braces all by myself. Sounds like she's trying to get over on you!

What's best dental coverage for white composite fillings?

Many dental insurance or dental plans do not offer coverage for white composite fillings except for front teeth. If I needed fillings repaired or new ones, I only want composite, non mercury based fillings. Any direction on plan type or specific companies to look at that are cost effective is appreciated? Thanks.
--------------------
I just pay for them -approx £30-100 as an additional extra - cheaper for me as I don't have insurance. If you ask your dentist you should be able to book a fully private non plan covered appointment for not much extra.

How much would braces cost if we dont have insurance?

Okay, so basically my mom keeps saying she's going to look into braces for me since my teeth are really messed up. I'm 14, and I don't have dental insurance but I really want to get my teeth fixed. How much do you think on average it would cost if she were to pay a monthly payment?
