Dental Insurance for individual dental care. I looking for a lower cost dental insurance plan in Texas that I can get for myself. I was told by a dentist that I need to have a root canal done. Which will require removing my crown and then having it put back on.

Just a few days ago I broke a good part of my back molar off.  It not hurting me too bad but I know I need for it to be fixed.  A few people are telling my I  may need to have a root canal and a crown done.  I figured I would need a crown but the thought of having to have a root canal too is just to much.

I really want to have vampire teeth.  I figure a dentist should be able to put on crowns that look like vampire teeth.   However I am not sure who would do it and about how much would they cost if a dentist will put them on.   I guessing this is not something dental insurance would cover but can you

Three hours ago I went to a dentist to have my tooth crowned because I cracked it when I was eating.  Now I am home.  I am not in any pain but my mouth and part of my tongue is still numb.  I was told by the dentist that the numbness should wear off in about three hours but it has not.  I am worry something is wrong and it going to stay like this.  Should I go back to the dentist?

Over the weekend my son had was playing basketball where he was elbowed in the mouth.  One of his side teeth got pushed in.  He immediately during the game pushed the tooth back into place.  However, knowing this happen I took him to the dentist on Monday where I was told he should have a root canal and crown done on that tooth.

Please help give me some good advise.  I just broke a part of my back tooth off.  I have dental insurance but since I just got it I fall under a waiting period so the crown that I need will not be covered for another six months.

Yesterday I cracked my tooth.  No part of the tooth broke off but I can see a crack line on the tooth that was not there before.  My tooth does not hurt me but I want to have it taken care of ASAP so that it does not brake before seeing a dentist.

I need to have three filling and one crown for a cracked back molar.  I do have dental insurance but when I ask the dental office staffing what I am covered for and for how much they do not seem to know or will not give me a direct answer.

I have dental insurance that is all right but does not cover for the high end dental services.  Which is really fine for me.  The problem I am having is with my dentist under the plan.  He keeps wanting me to get the high end crowns that are not covered compared to porcelain fused to metal that are.  I tell him I do not want full porcelain since it is not covered and he give me a hard time about it.

I have a PPO that has waiting period for almost every thing.  Since I have the plan now for seven months I only have five more months until I can have major services.  At the time I bought the plan I did not think waiting periods would be an issue and that I would be able to wait them out.   Now I need a crown that will cost about $800.00 After the waiting period the insurance company that I am with will cover 50% of the cost which is still a lot of money.

I really need your help and advise.   I am 24 with a really bad tooth ache.  I have not seen the dentist in well a long time.  I pretty sure I have at least a cavity issue going on at worse I may even need a root canal which means a crown too.  I am not sure since I am not a dentist what I will really need.  I only know that there is no way I am able to have any waiting periods for dental service.   I really need something that start ASAP  I am in that much pain.   Can you advise on what type of plan will help me with my current needs.   Thanks

Hi I was on your site and I live in California.  I was looking at the Golden West dental plan.  I need help in understanding the coverages.   I know I am going to need a cleaning more then likely a deep cleaning since it has been some time since I last saw a dentist.
