If I get two dental discount plans and the dentist office accepts both would that help me with costs at all?

I am desperate to get my dental work done since all the work I need to have done will probably end up costing me a ton. I need the best deal I can find to get the most serious work done before I go to school in August 2008. I am tired of always being in pain and being turned down by dental schools (if you can believe it) so I am working 3 jobs right now to save enough.





Also I know this sounds horrible but I am SO embarrassed by how bad I have let my teeth get, especially since I am only 23. So I am afraid of going to the dentist. I am also afraid because I have had some dental work done very poorly and my family has lost money on it. I am worried that if the work is not done right I will be shelling out a lot of money for nothing... :( Help me get my confidence please!

Unfortunately, most discounts are exclusive -- you can use one or the other, but not both.
Reply:best thing to do is to go into Mexico %26amp; have your work done there.





i have 19 crowns / caps %26amp; totalling the cost of all 19 + the gas to drive there %26amp; the cost of hotel for several days, i spent less than ONE crown would have cost me in the states





plus they do the work quickly %26amp; ONLY what you want





day one i had the temporary caps on, 2 days later had the permanent ones installed





total trip time 4 days
Reply:Dental insurance is not expensive. Check with one of your employers and see if it's offered through them. Usually it's only about $5-$10 each paycheck. If they don't offer it, look into getting it on your own. It is well worth the few extra bucks you would pay a month rather than paying full price for services, it's more expensive than you could imagine!





Don't be embarrassed, they've probably seen worse, better to do it now than later.
