Princess Lindsayy asked:


I’m still under my mom’s health insurance but she doesn’t have dental so is there a way to still get her health insurance but get my own dental insurance on the side? I need to get invisalign and I’m going to pay for it on my own but insurance would definitely help that. Also how do I pay for it? Is there like a monthly fee? I’m really stupid when it comes to this stuff so any help would be nice.

Rachel asked:


I have impacted wisdom teeth and need them out by this summer at the latest. I don’t have any dental insurance and my health insurance expired a few months ago…
I’m 16 years old and I need to come up with 2000 dollars somehow.
Is there ANY way I can get state dental insurance or something similar?
Yeah I know this should be my parents problem…however they are unfortunately irresponsible, so i’m pretty much on my own with this.

remember me? asked:


Dental care is SO expensive, the insurance is terrible, does not cover anything. Why is this? Why cant it be included in health insurance?

2fine4u asked:


I compared the co pays on several reputable dental insurance companies and it is very expensive. Many things are not covered, even with the best dental insurance. Health insurance is usually a 10 dollar co pay for primary physicians and a 35-50 dollar co pay for specialty physicians. Is there any reason why dental insurance co pay is as expensive as it is?

avs asked:


I currently have no insurance. I will receive health insurance after the first of the year, but it does not include dental. I am trying to figure out how to go to the dentist without dental insurance.
