Case Description
I have a broken molar, I saw my dentist and she said I need a root canal and crown, she gave me a price of $1300 to do the work, thats with insurance. I got a second opinion from Baylor College of Dentistry and they said the tooth cant be saved and I need a bridge now. They gave me an estimate of $1700. There is no way in heaven I can afford either one. Now I recently lost my job and have no insurance and it just seems as the pain is increasing as each day goes by, I cant sleep of chew now because of the pain. If anybody knows of a low cost dentist PLEASE REPLY TO MY POST!! GOD BLESS

Are You This Patient?
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.
