How come teeth and eye care got left behind when whoever created medical insurance came up with the idea? Let's cover everything but the teeth and eyes. Let's create a separate insurance for those. Fair deal? Not so much, when oral health care is vital to overall health. Gum disease can lead to a whole array of other health problems. So, now that I am faced with my seven year old needing root canal because she got the "bad teeth" in our family, I have got to find a way to pay for this or else she may be looking at dentures for Christmas. Forget her two front teeth. All I want for Christmas is "root canal"...
Dear Santa,
Please give me root canal surgery for Christmas so I do not need dentures. Maybe a nice pair of crowns to go with that and I don't mean the kind I can wear with my princess costume. I mean the porcelain kind that go over teeth.
Many Thanks,
Tessa
P.S. I don't need the full cost of the root canal, just what my dental insurance won't cover. My mommy tried to set up a payment plan, but my dentist said she doesn't do that.
I don't get too angry about anything. I always try to find the humor in every situation, but today, for once, I could only cry as the receptionist at the dentist told me, if I couldn't pay our portion of the "root canal" then my daughter's teeth would have to wait. It did not matter if our dental insurance covered most of the cost. They wouldn't take a payment plan. Her last words, "its our policy."
As I hung up, all I could think is, it is your policy to let a seven year old's teeth rot? I really felt sick to my stomach. There was a part of me that understood, sure, the dentist works hard and should get paid. She certainly is under no obligation to help people who can not pay. What is hard for me is, we have insurance. We have dental insurance that covers more than half of the cost, but we don't have enough cash to make up the difference, and there is really nothing my husband and I can do about that. We are working as hard as we can with four children.
If that were all, I may be able to accept that, but then I know, there are people who do not work by choice and the state pays for all of their medical and dental needs. I am not talking about the people who are out looking for jobs every day. I am talking about the people who live off the system indefintely. What else bothers me is, that if someone breaks his or her arm and he or she goes to a hospital, a hospital can't say, "sorry you have no insurance or money, we won't treat you." That is against the law. They have an obligation to treat the patient. Why is a broken arm more important than a rotting tooth?
I wish I had the answers. There must be a endodontist willing to do the "root canal" with a payment plan. I know there must be, because otherwise I will sell my wedding ring, before I tell my daugther she has to ask Santa for "root canal."

Whats up this is kinda of off topic but I was wondering if blogs use WYSIWYG editors or if you have to manually code with
HTML. I'm starting a blog soon but have no coding know-how so I wanted to get guidance from someone with experience. Any help would be enormously appreciated!
