Free Dental work???

About a year ago one of my molars became a problem. I went to the dentist who told me that I needed a root canal. He started the procedure and stopped half way through telling me to come back a week later. Well that weekend my tooth cracked in half. I went to another dentist who told me that the previous doctor did not do a proper root canal. So I am left with half of a tooth. I was told that the only option would be to have my tooth pulled, but an implant would cost $2000, and it's not covered by my insurance. So I have lived with this have tooth for a year, but I think it may be making me sick. Does anyone know where I could get free or discounted dental work???
--------------------
I would check with your county to see if there are any services available. Yes, implants are very costly and usually not covered by insurance because there are other options usually available, such as a bridge or partial denture. Check with your insurance to see if those are covered.

Is Dental Bridging necessary?

Hello, i recently had one of my premolars removed for (300 dollars)..The dentist told me that i should consider a dental bridging, because without it my teeth could shift and cause them to be crooked and hard to eat food. Now as i mention i already paid 300 for extraction of the tooth. He told me the bridging would cost 2000 dollars! I am low on cash and was wondering if any of you have experience with bridge and/or are currently without a tooth. how does it affect you? and is it worth paying 2000 for a bridge? thanks by the way i have no insurance.
--------------------
Yes, it is necessary. Your dentist is right about the consequences of not getting your missing teeth replaced. The fee seems reasonable. You will understand why when you read the following article : http://www.associatedcontent.com/article…

Dependents on taxes?

I have heard that you can only claim your kids on taxes if they are in your custody 6 months out of the year, I am going to be providing medical and dental insurance on my kid as well as paying child support and her mother collects state assistance and lives quite a distance from me does anyone know if its possible to claim my kid on my taxes for providing the insurance?

Tax Information for Non-Custodial Parents The non-custodial parent is the parent who is not the custodial parent. Here the custodial parent is the parent with whom the child shared the same principal place of abode for the greater portion of the year. Do you pay child support? If YES, you should be aware of Federal tax issues that could affect you ability to claim your child as a dependent, or take certain tax credits. Claiming Your Child as a Dependent Special rules apply when determining who may claim a child as a dependent. For example, if you are the non-custodial parent and provide more than half of your child's total support, you still may NOT be able to claim the child as a dependent. Generally, the custodial parent is allowed to claim the exemption for a child who is a dependent even if the non-custodial parent provides child support. A special rule may apply when the parents of a child are divorced or legally separated or when the parents live apart at all times during the last 6 months of the calendar year. If this rule applies, the non-custodial parent may claim an exemption for the child if the custodial parent signs a Form 8332, Release of Claim to Exemption for Child of Divorced or Separated Parents, or a substantially similar statement, or if a divorce decree, a decree of separate maintenance, or a written separation agreement provides that the non-custodial parent is entitled to the dependency deduction for the child.

How much is the cost of a health insurance policy for a family of 5 in USA?

lets assume Joe (38years old) and Sally (38years old) public both work and make a total of $70,000 a year between them. They have 3 children, Todd, 15, Gwen 13, and Gina 10. They have to buy their own health insurance since their employers do not provide it. They want a plan that does the following: max $25 dollar deductible for any visit to a doctor....and then 80% of all cost after that up to an individual maximum cost per person per year of $2000 at which point the insurance will pick up 100% up to $300,000 per person per year. Dental and vision coverage is a flat 80% of all procedures after $25 deductible. If this family goes out in the market place to buy this insurance, how much will it cost them per month.
--------------------
FREE if you want the Government to pay for it (and let someone else foot the bill), but in California -SERIOUSLY - it's about $25,000 a year and up. I think SELF INSURED CO-OPS are the way to go.

What is the best and most affordable pet insurance plan?

I have two cats who are about one year old. I want to get a plan that covers dental cleaning expenses and thats it for now anyway. I figure I can wait another couple years to get them a full health insurance plan considering they are indoor cats and not even one yet....Is there such a dental plan...I was told dental cleanings run about $150 a pop per cat per year. So If I can spend less than that a year on both of them for a health or dental plan that covers cleanings that would be great. Please help. Also, If you know of any basic health plans that cover vets visits that would be helpfully (VPI, Petfirst are too pricey for me any others?)
--------------------
Holy cow, you get your cat's teeth cleaned every year? I'm on the "when they look like they need it" plan which runs about every 5 years. Anyway, cheapest insurance is your own. If you know you're going to spend $300 on dental cleanings a year, put $30 in your savings account every month.
