Answers:
My company doesn't offer health insurance and I need to get my teeth looked at. A friend just told me about this company called dentalplans.com
It's not insurance but it does give discounts on all kinds of dental work.
She uses it and doesn't have any problems with places accepting it.
Some of the local clinics may offer a payment plan; make some calls.
Sometimes a Dentist will take payment. Ask your if he will.
Dental colleges usually have dental clinics. Students work on you (3rd or 4th year only) with a certified dentist observing. The fees are nominal and usually they have a payment plan...where you'll pay for the work only as it is done.
Research into county or state hospital dentists... they are cheaper...or look up local dental colleges... they have student clinics which are cheaper as well.
There is an discount insurance plan by Unicare 200. It gives you a 20 percent discount on dental work.
You need to call the surgeon you are interested in visiting to have your teeth removed and explain to them you have no insurance. You will probably go in for a brief consultation visit, followed by the procedure. Some places will include the consultation visit in the costs of extraction. You can ask prices for the extraction of each tooth and the anesthetic options you choose to have. They will give you a price estimate and from there, start saving!! Try to do one side at a time, unless you are considering general anesthetic (going under) then go with all 4.
I run my own company so I have to pay for my own Health Insurance. Most of the time I pay for everything out of pocket and found that not only Dentist but Doctors as well are more than willing to work with you when you tell them you have to pay in cash. I take my kids all to one dentist because he sits down with me and says this is what needs to be done and how much it will cost me. After talking he knows what I can pay each time and sets up the appointments for my kids to do each stage . Kinda pay as you go. A good Dentist is more than willing to work with you.
maybe you should search for insurances on google.
