I had a dental checkup October10th. I’ve been going to my dentist for 45 years. He doesn’t take Medicaid though so I found a dentist online who takes Medicaid (denti-cal). My regular dentist gave me the results of my last checkup and said I needed two crowns and a filling for $4100. So that’s why I went to this dentist today who takes Medicaid but she tells me I need two teeth pulled and a bone graft. No crowns, no fillings.
WTF? Who am I supposed to believe? I went from needing two crowns to needing two teeth pulled. I have an appointment this Thursday to get the teeth pulled but I’m highly skeptical and I think she may be wrong about pulling the teeth. I don’t know if I should trust her or not.
I made a dentist appointment today. I have at least one tooth that needs pulling. I will not be able to eat as easily once I get it done. It took twenty five years to get into the habit of brushing my teeth and flossing. I’m a little worried because of my gag reflex. I’m not scared of the pain.
