text: i cant afford to get my teeth fixed..... i live in north texas ! someone give me advice.? i have been dodging dental work with the benefit of having insurance because it still cost too much. for atleast 5 years now i have been going to dentist to have my teeth cleaned only to be told that i need to get this fixed or that fixed..... ive had to make payments for each procedure - each time i could only come back when my balance was paid... only to be told the same thing.... come back and i have to fix this. ive only had my teeth cleaned 2 times out of 5 years and i had to make a sceen to get it done. now im faced with probably 3 to 4 crowns and they want to charge me $700-$800 per tooth with insurance. i cant afford it - i can barely make a car note. i have 3 children. im about to have a nervous break down. someone please give me some advice. i live in north texas. i have a discounted dental plan that should help with the costs. check it out at http://www.everyonebenefits.com/lmota
