I am on SSDI, get EBT food stamps, and get some other supports, such as Medicaid to supplement my military insurance (from my estranged husband). The military insurance, so far as I can tell, only covers routine dental work, and pays a percentage of other dental procedures. Last time I had dental work done, I had to have a full cleaning, which ended up costing me $300! There is no way I can afford anything like that again... What options do I have between Medicaid and Tricare (and other options)? I have severe dental problems (I was diagnosed with peridontal disease last year, a direct result of growing up with a mother who never brought me to a dentist, so by the time I was old enough to do it myself, I already had severe gingivitis which quickly became peridontis, even with cleanings and treatments which I couldn't really afford, but tried to get anyway. Basically, I'm going to need a fully cleaning, periodontal assessment, going to have to have many teeth pulled, and get tooth implants, dentures, and/or bridgework. From my own assessment, I have 4 severely decayed teeth, about 10 partially decayed teeth, and a few shwoing signs of leanig that way. My gums have receded a great deal over time, and they are sensitive and bleed when brushed and bleed severely when I floss. I do try to brush and floss every day, though I don't see how it could possibly help now. Please help me figure out a way to fix my mouth...I am, according to others, a very pretty girl, except for my teeth, which are so crooked and messed up...I should've had braces when I was a kid, too, they are so crooked, but my mother refused to believe that...she never cared.

I don't understand what you are asking for or want. You get tons of governmental insurance and welfare programs. I really don't know what more you want people to do because of your neglect?

I'm 14 years old and my wisdom teeth are already killing me, ?
I cannot eat anything cold, yet drink anything cold or it stings really bad, my tooth wakes me up every night... i have no dental insurance... i'm ready to die, it feels like my nerves are bothering me just around that 1 tooth, like there really sensitive. (the 1 in the back right) so please, help me get some sleep :(
--------------------
do you have any abesol or orajel? take some tylenol, advil, aleve or motrin whichever you have in the house, you sure its your wisdom teeth and not a cavity?? do you have any floss try to floss around the tooth maybe something is caught between the tooth and gum....if your parents will let you, swish your mouth with some liquor the alcohol will help the gums swish it in your mouth and spit it out, dont swallow it.....also take a cup of warm water put 1/2 tsp of salt in it, mix it and rinse your mouth with it, spit out, and repeat til you finish up the whole glass of water, the salt will kill any infection near the gum the tooth might be causing....... so go take the pain relievers first and then do the rest hope you feel better

How much can I expect to pay for cobra insurance?
I was recently offered a job that pays much more than my current job. The downfall is the employer is small and does not currently offer an employee insurance plans. I'm 30 years old and I've never had any major health issues. I know I can keep the insurance from my former job thru cobra law. But what will i expect to pay. Currently as an employee I pay 26.35 per each pay period (2 week pay periods) for medical insurance and 9.53 a pay period for dental. In summary i pay roughly 71 dollars a month to cover myself only (no dependents). the company i work for has 7000 employees worldwide. probably 2-3000 u.s. employees. How much can I expect to pay for cobra?
--------------------
"I know I can keep the insurance from my former job thru cobra law." Nobody has mentioned that COBRA benefits last for only 18 months. As you say your young and have no health issues I would apply for a new individual health policy now the difference between what you will pay under COBRA and your own policy that is customized for your financial situation will be significant. I've done that many times for my clients

getting insurance?
I am self employed. For a long time i did not have health insurance. Well i talked to someone today and he told me i could get some. It would be $247 a month. thats also includes dental and vision. my friend says thats too much, but to be honest i am not sure how much people usually pay. Is that a good price per month? thanks.
--------------------
That is an excellent price. I'd be very leery of it. What does it cover? Private health insurance (depending on your risk factors, deductibles, etc.) would normally run at least $400 a month. Insurance does not cover everything. It might cover a PERCENTAGE of everything. What is your co-pay and deductibles? What are the annual and lifetime limits it pays? What procedures are included/excluded? Lots of variables in insurance. Again, this sounds too good to be true.

Dental Bonding for a Diastema?
hello, i have a gap between my front teeth and i'm wondering if it can be closed by dental bonding also i want to know how much it costs this bonding ? and if my college insurance can afford that for me? thank you
--------------------
Bonding will definitely work to close the gap. As far as costs and insurance goes, I can't tell you a set price. Call your dental office (or if you don't have a dentist you see regularly, then phone a couple of offices and ask what the prices are and then you can pick and choose which one you want to go to). As I'm not from the states (I'm from Canada) I can't even estimate a price for you, but here, it's not too pricey (approx. $150-$200). And you'll also have to call your insurance company and ask, as every insurance company has different policies on what they cover and how much. Hope this helps!

Will Kaiser Permanente take out my Wisdom Teeth?
I haven't called yet but I don't wanna feel stupid when I do :/ My dental won't cover me anymore cuz I'm not a full time student so my next option is my medical which covers me regardless of student status. I know kaiser doesn't have dental will they take out my wisdom teeth if I need them to? they aren't going to sit and wait til someone takes them out I've already called around to other dental insurance and so far its a no go
--------------------
I would contact Kaiser and find out. If your wisdom teeth will create other health problems, then they might take them out. If it's for purely cosmetic reasons, ie it will mess up your smile, my guess they won't. As for all those people who poo poo Kaiser, let me state that you have to be forceful and assertive with Kaiser and take charge of your own health care. Be informed and educated. Kaiser is a "cattle" outfit; however, it does offer health coverage for a lot less.
