No dental insurance..cost?
Price does vary at each dental office. A ball park for a cleaning,exam, and x-rays is around $250. However, many offices run new patient specials for around $99.00 for all the services. If you have had any x-rays taken in the past year, they are still good and can be used at any dentist. If you had a full mouth of x-rays taken in the past 5 years - it is also good. A cavity's price will depend on the type of tooth and how many sufaces need to be filled. Silver fillings are cheaper than white ones. Silver fillings work just fine reguardless of what you may hear. A silver filling for a back tooth will run you between $70-$130. A white filling will be around $130-$250. Again, each office has their own set of fees. Many dentists will offer cash patients a discount if they pay for the procedure in full, usually is about a 10% discount. Also, CareCredit is a great option. Its a dental credit card that offers same as cash for up to 12 months. One thing I would suggest is calling local colleges that have dental programs. Many have "student dentists" and "student hygientists" that treat you for a very low fee. Many people who cannot afford treatment opt to see a student.
Reply:I work in a dental office and many patients do NOT have insurance. We offer a credit card called CARECREDIT that allows patients to make payments in 1 yr with no interest. You should try to apply for the card yourself and find a dentist that accepts it. Believe me, it helps!!! go to www.carecredit.com

Reply:There are various types of dental insurance. A dental insurance is very much required so that in case of dental treatment a person need not spend huge money for the treatment.
