Yeah, just to sit there in the waiting room for 2 hours, have them brush your teeth for you, and be like "yeah, everything looks good. come back in six months!". I can brush my own teeth, thanks.

"Everything looks good, come back in 6 months."

(6 months later)

"Looks like you need 2 root canals and a crown."

The point of insurance is supposed to be cover surprises because everyone eventually has a few. Typical dental coverage nowadays isn't really insurance at all, it's a payment plan. I literally opted out of insurance in a year where I expected I needed dental work and it saved me money.

Rules:

  1. Be civil and nice.
  2. Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.
