Please help I need advice. I am new to this forum. I have read it before but couldn't get back to it because than I had to think about my fear. And I knew what had to be done and that was to just go to the dentist after 13 years. So, I don't know how I did it (Really I don't, I almost cancelled the appt) but I went today. Problem is though it looks like I need at least ten thousand dollars worth of work done. So, now I am more scared of the bills and telling my husband than even going to the dentist! (Isn't it funny how one fear replaces another?). The weird thing is I still feel relieved that I went though. But there's no way we will be able to pay for all of this now so I am trying to think of doing it slowly. But I have some questions does anyone know anything about supplemental dental insurance? Any idea how I can find a good one? Also, I thought about doing the dental school possibly. I think there is one at Washington University in St. Louis Missouri but I can't find anything on the web? Anyone know anything about these things? Also my first appt was just x-rays and exam but I have to come back for my full mouth debridement cleaning in a couple weeks? Is this normal to have the exams one day and cleaning another? Also is this going to be painful?
