Case Description
A bit of dental history here:

I had 9 fillings placed over 20 years ago, and 3 of them fell out recently. The upper left molar(where one filling fell out) will need a root canal but there's just a small bit of tooth left.

I've had previous orthodontic work done, but I did not complete treatment, because I suffer from severe acid reflux, and needed to have most of the appliances taken off for dental repair.

I have a tooth in the front that needs to be capped. I had a root canal performed there over 2 years ago, and never got it capped.

As a result of the ortho that was done, I have 8 teeth that were pulled as a part of ortho treatment, and one tooth pulled from decay, for a total of 9 teeth missing. So I seriously need to look into getting Invisalign or Braces so I can close the gaps in between my teeth.

Orthodontics aside, how much and I looking at paying here?

I have Delta Dental PPO 80/50, but my income is limited, so I will have to get on a payment plan of some sort. My credit is shot, so I would not qualify for Care Credit or Capital One Finance Plans.

When selecting a new doctor, consider the following:
  • Quality of Explanations: Compare dentist replies. Give preference to well-reasoned, detail-oriented, transparent explanations.
  • Experience & Qualifications: If a dentist has a practice listing, check their practice description, special training, typical office procedures and before & after case photographs.
  • Other Patients' Freedback: If a dentist has reviews, read other patients' reviews. The more reviews they have, the more likely it is that other patients' feeback is accurate.
  • Treatment Costs: Dental procedure costs vary from practice to practice and depend on a variety of factors. Because quality of patient care and treatment results vary from practice to practice most dentists will not "price-match" treatment fees of others.

Hi my name is Wendy I recieved your e-mail and wanted to explain that the best way to get a breakdown of payments would be for you to come in for an exam and let Dr. Musso go over you r options and we will quote you the cost before any treatment is done. We are on Delta prefered list and you do get a discounted fee for having delta so if you have not had x-rays done they will cover your first visit at 100%. Please call our office today to set up an appointment.

Thank you
