I am presently on a COBRA plan with my health insurance, which is still ongoing, but my COBRA dental insurance runs out at the end of this month. The company (Blue Cross Blue Shiled) told me that they don't offer dental in itself. I'm presently a student and don't have options through a company. Is it possible to get dental insurance on its own from a provider? I imagine that this is the case, but I was hoping that people could lead me in the right direction!
--------------------
if you are going to get insurance for yourself (only) you could put the money you would spend on premiums in a savings account and call it dental insurance about 80.00 a month (40.00 on the 1st and 40.00 on the 15th) that is about what you pay to have insurance (unless your job pays for some ) do this for one year ( usually waiting period anyway) then go to the dentist next year and you will have your own insurance and spend it how you want to in the dentist office. and if you don't need work done you can keep building it up for the next year!

Can I get dental insurance without going through my job?
I am looking for dental insurance which will pay 90% of dental work done.
--------------------
You could research a discount dental plan. The discount amount varies by location, procedure and the plan that you go with. I have located a website that you could use to compare discount dental plans, as I only have personal experience with Ameriplan. I will list both below as sources for you. I would definitely compare their monthly premiums, number of local providers and the savings on whatever procedures that you need.

Does your dental insurance help cover orthodontic treatments?
If your dental insurance helps cover orthodontic treatments, whether it's only a little bit or in full, please tell me what insurance you have. I CANNOT find anywhere dental insurance that covers orthodontic, or any orthodontic insurance. Its driving me nuts. Only relevant answers please. And i'm not talking about dental discounts for it, i'm talking about actual insurance. Thank you
--------------------
Only 50%. I'm with Aetna. They cover 100% preventative (cleanings, etc), 80% of minor dental work (fillings, extractions), and 50% of orthodontics. It blows but its better than nothing. The only time I had insurance that covered everything was in the military.

I have no insurance, about how much will these dental procedures cost me?
I have no dental insurance, but I can't wait any longer, I need to get many cavities fixed, and I need help with my gum disease. I was managing it from home pretty well for a while but I still need help. Since I have no insurance, how much will it cost me to get my many cavities fixed and get help with my gum disease?
--------------------
Many cavities, $500 - $600, and the gum disease prevention and advice are included; but you can not reverse or fix the damage done to the gums, and there may be some root damage as well. Certainly there will be plaque or a coating below the gumline associated with gingevitis.
