I am also a college student and in the last 4 years have had at least 7 thousand dollars in dental bills. I had to take out extra loan money each semester!!. It really sucks but you have to take care of the teeth you have and I am also a bit older student, I feel for you. I could of had that tummy tuck I have wanted for years. The money I have spent on dental work. When I was a child dentists drilled the heck out of teeth and filled big fillings because they figured there would be less decay but when those fillings fell out or they need replacing. There would be issues because the filing was so big and close to the root all that as left to do was "root canal" which meant 800 to 900 dollars then on top of that you need a cap which is also 800.00 and they want the money upfront. Sorry this post is so long but it really is aweful how expensive dentists are and how lousy dental plans are. I spend more time at the dentist then the doctor. Hope things work out for you
