Hello, my name is Amanda. I am 22 years old and I am a single mommy.
I recently had a whole bunch of dental work, a root canal and all of my wisdom teeth pulled.
The root canal was $1300 and the wisdom was $1700... so that was pretty much the bulk of my tax return spent on that. I have medical insurance but no dental.
The tooth the root canal was done on, just broke in half. Leaving me with a very painful hole and a ragged tooth rubbing against my cheek and tongue. I signed a waiver saying that the endodontist was not responsible for any damage incurred after the procedure.
I have to do something about this tooth. But, it's going to be upwards of $1,000 dollars to fix. I have other bills and a child. I cant be spending 4 thousand a year on my teeth.
Does anyone know of a dentist in the CNY or upstate NY region that will work out REASONABLE payment plans, and not finance me at 25%?
