Re: dental health cards need $25,000 of work

He never said I had to get them. He just offered up if im going to pay/invest 18,000 to fix all my teeth that actually need work. I mite as well pay the 7,000 to fix my front teeth as well. Get everything done. Do you guys think since he is a cosmetic dentist I should jus get the veneers done by him. And try to get all the other work done somewhere else do you think I will save $$150-200 this way?

Re: dental health cards need $25,000 of work

Have you checked your area for any "dental schools".  I have known people who have had a lot of needed work done at a dental school for a very fair price.  The students are trained by fully accredited dentists.  Just another thought you might want to consider.

Re: dental health cards need $25,000 of work

You're best option is to do what you can afford to.  If that means doing them one or two at a time, that's what you do.  It sounds like your front teeth are in good shape, so you don't need the veneers.

 

You're not going to get approved for $25k.  You're best bet is try to get $1000-$1500 from CareCredit and doing them one at a time and then paying it off and moving on to the next set.

You won't pay nearly as much if a dental student does the work.  Not to mention if it's an actual dental student (as opposed to someone who just finished school), there will be an "actual professional" overseeing the entire procedure.

 

Do what you can afford.

Ok.  Keep in mind that you are going to be paying a lot more than $25k if you don't pay in cash.  You can probably get the work done by a dental student for less than half.
