For example, the other day I came across a job for a dental receptionist. This poor woman had 25 tasks to do everyday, work 6 days a week and always have a smile on her face - to only make $10 an hour! These tasks all dealt with other people, insurance and billing companies - it wasn't like she'd be painting her nails all day long. It really burns me that a dentist will make in access $300 or more an hour but can't afford to pay the receptionist at least $18 an hour. Is it really that difficult to throw the office staff some decent pay? This is why I hate everything corporate - some old man at the top, who can't even work a fax machine or copier is getting millions and meanwhile the hard working people on the bottom get paid literally nothing. If you don't get married these days, you can't even afford your own place - not on $10 an hour. I want to know what employers figure in making salaries for their employees?
--------------------
absolutely agree with you. it seems that the more money that is associated with the job/industry, the more pay. so the fact that people are paying loads of money for dental work, means the dentist rakes it in, but this doesn't get passed on. anything that involves looking after people also seems to mean low pay... take a look at childcare workers. here in australia, they are one of the lowest paid occupations. salary has nothing to do with how important the job really is in terms of improving / saving lives.

can i get free dental work in new jersey?
have no insurance..
--------------------
Alrighty...none of these answers were helpful in the least, and I'm sorry. Try AmeriPlan. I have them and you can save up to 80 per cent on dental care, even specialists. I wish I would have signed up this month, because the full medical program (with vision, hearing, chiro) is $3 per month for 3 months.

Will betadine stain my teeth?
I was told by a dentist at a dental school to rinse with it for one minute once per month, due to having cavities that I can't afford to take care of. (no dental insurance)
--------------------
No it will not stain your teeth. Though you should not do this if you have thyroid problems.

HELP! Now my daughter is terrified of going to the dentist! :-(?
Hello: My daughter who is almost eight years old,is terrified of going to the dentist now,because she has had to have four baby teeth extracted on two different dental visits to make room for her permanent teeth to come in. My husband and I are always telling her how brave she is and how the dentist is our friend because they help to keep our teeth healthy and pain free,but she is still scared to death to go. We have a WONDERFUL woman dentist who is very patient and kind and so is her assistants and office staff as well. We don't have dental insurance and both times that the dentist pulled our daughter's teeth,she didn't use gas or any pain killers before the procedure. I don't know if it was the fact that the dentist knew that using gas or pain killers was very expensive and she wanted to save us the extra cost? We don't want our daughter to be scared of the dentist,but there are some procedures that have to be done. Please share any tips or suggestions that you may have.

Guys...for the idiots who answered before...nowhere in this persons question does she mention not using a local anesthetic. Pain killers is not the same as an anesthethic and most likely an anesthetic was used...oh and it probably it wasn't novacaine since novacaine isn't used anymore...hasn't been used for years. As for your daughter, unfortunatley she probably does need sedated...talk to this dentist about your issues. If they do not offer sedation (most general dentists do not offer it) then you may want to consider someone who does. Most often they will give her something to drink and she will fall asleep and they will take her back. Nitrous is minimally effective, it helps those who are not nervous not care as much about the pain involved in the procedure. It doesn't anethitize a tooth or get rid of pain...just helps you care less about it. The toughest thing for you will be forcing her to go. She won't want to go...Nobody WANTS to go have teeth worked on. Continue the accolades when she does well at the office and things will get better. Good Luck!!

Does Healthnet Or Aetna Cover Jaw Surgery for Over bite?!?!?!?! 10 Points?
I Have health net health insurance and aetna dental insurance and i am in San Diego, California. I was wondering if either one covers corrective jaw surgery. Because i have a severe overbite, i can stick two fingers in between my teeth and multiple dentist have said braces wont fix it. So im interested in getting this Surgery done but i know i cant't afford through my pocket. Any piece of information helps.
--------------------
Having worked with many insurance companies, I bet they tell you it's cosmetic, and they don't cover cosmetic surgery. I hope I'm wrong.

Is there any help for a single, low-income woman with depression and no children living in the home?
I need help! I have clinical depression, no insurance, no job, and no bank account. Does any place exist that can offer very affordable insurance for someone like me (general, mental, perscription, dental, and e.r.)? I also need help with finding an affordable yet competent counselor or theropist. I was going to my local mental health clinic, but the only real help I was getting was the medication, the counseling sucked rocks (was more confused with couseling than trying to figure things out on my own). I haven't got a clue where to go or what to do. I'm not married, I can't find a job, my sons don't live with me, I live with my grandfather because I can't afford to take care of myself let alone live alone, a lying jerk over-drafted my bank account and got me in so much debt that I had to cancel it, I have not one friend, and there is no one I can turn to for help in my family. If anyone can stear me in some kind of direction, I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you.

You really need to contact your local health department. They may very well be able to help you with health concerns and they can also direct you to somewhere that can help with depression. Someone you can make appointments with to go and talk to them on a regulas basis. Both places work with low income/no income. Good luck. and really try contacting them. It helped me.
