And if I just go to a regular doctor, would they proscribe me pain meds? My mouth has been unbearable for 3 days straight, and tylenol doesn't do much.
--------------------
My husband went to the ER one time because the pain was so bad. They prescribed him some Vicodin's and told him to make an appointment with the dentist. We have Dental so IDK what it cost. I know that you would need to pay for the surgery itself and the anesthesia. Why don't you try to call a local dental office and ask them. Maybe you can even set up a payment plan.

Can I use two different dental insurance plans from different jobs on one procedure?
So that I don't have to pay any fees.
--------------------
Yes. You will still have a co-pay though. But, what one card doesn't pick up, the other one may. Good luck.

Do I have to have a job that offers dental insurance to get it?
how do I find an easy and affordable dental insurace that will aceept people that are self-employed?

You have five options with dental. 1. Go without insurance. If you have good teeth and just want the basics you probably don't need any plan. A yearly cleaning and exam and even an occasional filling will cost you less without insurance. 2. Visit a local dental school. You can get many procedures done for a reduced price if you're willing to let them practice on you. 3. Insurance - Depending upon the policy: cost $30-$60 per month per person. You pay a $50 deductible first, they have an annual maximum that they'll pay per year of $750 - $1500, they have a waiting period up to 18 months for major work and then you're paying 50% of the charges. Example - average cost for a root canal in my area is $829. With insurance you pay $414 after paying 18 months of premium (around $800 or $900). Advantage - you can use any dentist with most plans. Call or visit a local independent agent to find a policy in your area. 4. Discount plans - Cost - $5-$12 per month. No deductible, no annual maximum and no waiting periods. Also, hardly any dentists will accept the plan and when they do you MIGHT get a 10% discount, which is about the same discount you can get by paying cash. Example - average cost for a root canal in my area is $829. With discount plans you pay around $746. Be very wary of these plans because most are scams. The people that sell these plans have little or no knowledge about health & dental insurance and do not need a license to sell them. The plans are not regulated by the state so you have no recourse when you have problems. Some states are starting to ban these plans from being sold. Here is an informative link http://www.insurancejournal.com/news/wes… concerning these plans. 5. Fee for Service discount plans - Cost $7-$15 per month. No deductible, no annual maximum and no waiting periods. Many dentist will accept the plan (check providers first before signing up with any plan). When you use the plan there is a set fee that the dentist will charge you. Example - average cost for a root canal in my area is $829. With fee for service plans you pay as little as $404. I'm an insurance agent and my personal plan is the fee for service plan. I got mine here http://www.dpbrokers.com/default.aspx?lo… specifically the Aetna Dental Access plan but which one you get depends upon your area and comparing the fee schedule to find the best for what you need covered.

I live in Rome, NY & have no dental insurance; does anyone know of a free or low-cost dental clinic in my area?
We have medical coverage, but with no dental in the last several years (we can't afford it), it's fallen by the wayside. We can't afford to pay out of pocket either, & now all I have to show for it is a massive toothache. Any help is appreciated.
