Default Is there a way to get a dental procedure covered by medical insurance...

...rather than dental? I have alot of dental problems, i need 15 crowns on the top alone just basic bad tooth enamel. Its not from brushing or flossing since i do that daily. I have dental insurance but not as good as my medical. So is there a way to get it submitted through medical.
I don't have delta dental in my state though. And the dentist i go to requires it paid at the time of service.

That is horrible that your dentist expects you to pay at time of service. I am suggesting you talk to another dentist, call around and see who might be willing to set up a payment plan. There is no way you can afford to do all that, and as far as I know, regular insurance will not cover dental work.

Have you tried to apply for carecredit...Go to carecredit.com and check that out.

BesT WisheS to you!

I know it can be frustrating to need all this dental work, and feel like there is just NO WAY to get it done. I hope you are able to work it out.

Another suggestion that just came to mind, and not one I am comfortable with, but many people are is to find a dental teaching school. They offer discounted dental work, because supervised students work on you. You do have to pay up front there though, you cannot work out payment plans.

BesT WisheS!
