Well - yes = dental work does have that way of making us feel like we can't open our mouths......well - am sure your work will go well....but keep us posted as to how it goes.

I have a coworker who has a bridge and it has broken and she wanted to get it repaired but the dentist told her she would have to go 2 weeks with NOTHING where her bridge now is (upper teeth from molar to molar). She cancelled the appointment and refused to be that toothless for that length of time. So she's saying she's going to see if they can make her a replacement bridge to wear while the real one is getting repaired.......I don't think that her dental insurance will pay for a duplicate bridge ----- but who knows.

I need the same thing. $7,000. Wouldn’t have been a huge problem *before,* but now I need a car first and will need a doctor first and then any meds from that, before I can do dental work - tho doc will probably want the dental done before we can treat anything else.

And it all has to cost me $5 a month, or I won’t be able to eat, lol. Guess that would solve the other problems, tho!

Good grief you all need to come down here and go to Mexico — they do the whole thing in a couple of days and in some cases you can get the impressions, spend the night in Yuma and go back the next day — and the prices !!! we cancelled dental insurance here and just go to Mexico. We have a friend here who had about $20,000 worth of work done for $5,000 in Algodones...
