Dental insurance really is a racket. I have double dental coverage yet don’t have full coverage for the gum graft AND implant I need.

I had to schedule the first part of the implant process at the end of the year so I can spread it out between 2 coverage years.

Ridiculous.

Shop around, some dentists will accept insurance only, wave copay, or discount. Not as much as they used too since the pandemic but who knows -- nm - zeitgeist Jul 1, 12:23
It's is weirdly specific. You are covered for this procedure, but not if they use an elastic band or it's a Tuesday. -- nm - Baronnoo Jul 1, 12:12
It should be considered more of a pre-paid discount services plan rather than actual insurance, imo. -- nm* - znufrii Jul 1, 12:10 1
