The same plan you use for car repairs.
Cash.
And I am a dentist
folding money FTW
Yep. That’s what we do.
I have medicare with a Delta Dental HMO plan.
I have several broken teeth that need crowns, and bridges as both canines are missing. The plan pays a lot but I’ve never been able to use it.
My wife had her upper four front teeth capped a couple years ago. The dentist billed $250 per tooth above what the plan paid.
I got a quote a couple years ago for $30k worth of work, the plan would have paid $20k.
I have a few $k to spare now. Could I change enrollment to a Delta Dental PPO plan? Would that pay everything? Approximate monthly cost?
as a dentist- does densify from crest actually work to ‘rebuild teeth’ or is it a gimmick?
I agree completely, and I'm a patient. I've been on Medicare for ten years now and have required a root canal and also a tooth implant, as well as, of course, regular cleanings and exams. I have paid cash. All the insurance plans I have seen, including from employers, have higher combined co-pays and premiums than what my cost was.
It covers $2500, in addition too the 2 yearly cleanings and xrays. There are different options, such as transportation, dental, etc.
A person has to find a company that offers different services. Also the dentist needs to accept that particular insurance.
