So I went to the dentist to see about getting a permanent bridge for my top 4 front teeth. I figured it would cost me around one thousand dollars. After the exam he tells me All my teeth need to be removed and an upper and lower permanent bridge can replace my teeth. Shocking to say the least. I know that I don’t need all my teeth pulled; he’s looking to make money on me and the price would be $11,000.00.
Bye bye. Going to a new dentist for a second opinion . I’m staying strong and not smoking even though I could go for a PACK.
Ugh
That's NOT so bad - if you can believe THAT! I paid over $15,000 to have my remaining front/side teeth capped about 10 years ago --- and the teeth underneath have now failed! Nobody TOLD me caps will only last about that long. HUH????!!! I thought they would be good as long as I was......NOPE!
I am now looking at dentures (OMG - NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!) and maybe some implants - to the tune of about another $20,000.
If I wasn't so vain, I wouldn't bother - but I am, so there is that.
Hope your second opinion is a better option!!
