Is there a dentist in the house??

3 of my teeth are regularly sensitive when I chew, I think I got some cavities.

What I don't have is insurance.

I tried looking it up but found nothing...does anybody know how much it costs to pay for at least a cleaning, out of pocket?

See if you can find a school that teaches dental hygienists. You might be able to let them work on your mouth for very cheap.

I think my dentist charges around $120 for a cleaning.

Man, I haven't been to the dentist in years.

Here Here!! Ive been in dentistry for 15 yrs! Not a dentist but know enough. Definetly go to a school for starters just because its less expensive. If you go to a dentist whose offering some big special say $100.00 for all x-rays exam and cleaning, BULLSHIT! You'll get in there and end up not with the cleaning because they will find 20 grand worth of work that needs to be done, and tell you you need a deeper cleaning which STARTS at 125.00 per quad if not more. Stay away from those ads. Im not sure about the fees there, so call around and or ask around first. Word of mouth is the best advertising. In the meantime, pick up some Sensodyne toothpaste and brush twice daily. It will help cut down on some of the sensitivty.

Goodluck!

you can go down to mexico, get your dental work done cheaper.

Helllo, I am from India. I am saying the truth. A average dentist charges only 5$ for cleanoing. Believe me. there are big centres in the metros where the costs may run up to 200$ but normal average dentist does it for 5$. though 5$ is not a very low money here.

i recently just went back to the dentist, i had to get a debriedment, scaling & root planning left and right , i need a root canal on one molar then filling crown inlay. Then one more filling. This past week has not been pleasant and even with a dental hmo i have spent 500 out of pocket.

Dont wait! The longer you wait the worse and more expensive it is.

Dentists are the biggest scammers in the health industry.

"Yes, we know Billy already had braces when he was 10 but it looks like he's going to need them again. Why? Well he probably didn't wear his retainer."

Oh man, and wisdom teeth? Such bs.
