Teeth are very expensive!!!!!

[tw33k]

I just found this thread. Don't wanna think about my teeth. I have hardly any molars left. I need $$$$ to get implants but that's a long way off. I used to grind them and have worn away the enamal. Now I gotta be real careful with the one's I have left (still got 3 broken ones)
There's no option for me in the poll.I saw a dentist 2 years ago

I think there should be an other option added to the poll like, RUN.

I knocked a kids tooth out at the park a couple of days ago.

You have to understand how kids flock around the Antman. We were playing Ball Of Pain, aka dodgeball, and I turned around to pick up a poorly thrown ball and forearmed a 6 year old in the mouth. Pop! One baby tooth cleanly extracted.

About two years ago, I am watching my Number One and our neighboroid wrestle on the basement stairs. Neighboroid's foot catched Number One in the jaw and one baby tooth goes flying. It was a really cool scene. Everybody laughed.

i have a picture somewhere, i took when i had my other 3 wisdom teeth taken out. it was about 4 hours later, when the swelling really kicked in, and i looked like Marlon Brando (in his later years).

another chapter of that story. i went to ye local walmart, to pick up my a/b's and my pain meds. just my luck, their computer (as in one) was down, so i had to sit there for 2 hours, or an hour and a half AFTER the Novocaine wore off. they didnt even give me a discount.

well a re-post, as i was so rudely interrupted by the only tv show i actually enjoy watching..

last summer, i started getting chronic (no, not that chronic.) headaches. they came and went, but ultimately left me incapable of doing the simplest of tasks. so, one day i radioed the boss, and told him i was leaving early, cause i might just have to kill the next person i came across. mind you, he thought in his infinite wisdom that my problem was from "drinking all night". hearing that, i whipped up a few choice words to him, and went home. then the big boss, well his wife, ordered that i quote "get my ******* *** to the hospital"

so, against my will (im stubborn) i was driven to the ER, and being that i have no insurance, received the best of care </sarcasm> they gave me an intern, who was quite possibly younger than me, who, preceded to "treat" me. what he did was, in this order, shine a flashlight in my eyes, ask how old i was, and sent me home with a bottle of aspirin. a week later i recieved via mail, a $790 bill for "services rendered".
I tore out a sheet of loose leaf paper, wrote "GO **** YOURSELF!" put it in the envelope and mailed it back.

so after another week of agony, i was doing something, and had an epiphany. i had an impacted tooth. i was certain of it. (i read medical books when im bored) anyway, long story short, it turned out i had 4 impactted wisdom teeth, and the overall cost to have them removed was just over $2000.

after discussing it with my boss, ha actually had the scroat to say "thats a bargain!"
my retort.. "not when i only make $7000 working in THIS s***hole, a year, YOU A**HOLE!"..... he shut up after that. (it was a seasonal job, but none the less)

ya sound like me buddy:roflmao::roflmao:

thanks all for the stories.
I just called the dr. office, girl said pain normal. I asked for heroin they just laughed:sarc:
said to keep takin motrin.
I'm still in pain (sort of) I still can't belive the amount I have to pay. I still have to go back for the crown in 3weeks, a cancer check, a cleaning and xrays ( more F'in $$$ )

price I have to pay for waiting 20yrs
thanks my friends

 

[holo88]

heroine?,...lol. but they might give you vicodin. that works pretty good, and it'll help you sleep (involuntarily). but its a narcotic, and can have some adverse side effects. it made my legs itchy

good luck with you procedures, pacinitaly. its worth it in the long run.

The girl said pain normal, you should have said, no I'm paying cash this time.

I just came back from the dentist (took my appointment 2 days ago at a new dentist because I had moved). He took X-rays, did a root canal and cleaned the teeth. Total cost = Zero. It's good to have comprehensive public health insurance.
My wife, who prefers to have her teeth cleaned in the US (for no obvious reason other than habit), has to dish out $130 each time - and that is just for a cleaning job.
