Ask Dr. LJ, Dental Edition
So, because it's a hassle, I didn't look into this thing I'm about to explain until now, a week before my dentist appointment.
I have no dental insurance.
Gentle Dental does not take anything but Big Name insurance.
I know I'm not the only one who's had to make due with dental discount situations, which is my current plan. I'm looking for recommendations for dentists in the Boston area who will do this. I know they exist because the really horrible office that I had in Lexington that did my root canal took it.
ETA: oh, bonus-- I really feel like this whole jaw clenchy thing will have to be resolved on this round. GD wanted me to get a mouth guard. I'm not 100% sold that will solve anything and I know they're upwards of 400-600 dollars. Anyone who has successfully dealt with this issue, separate or including the insurance shit- please do chime in.
