I am 26 and have had braces for almost a year. I need veneers too, but can't afford them!? What should I do?

The dentist wants to do 8 veneers, I really only want to do six since you only see 6 when I smile. But here is the thing I have already paid $5000 for my braces and I really want to fix my teeth. The veneers will cost me $7,500 that is with another procedure that I need done. Does anyone know of any cosmetic dental plans. My dental plan will not cover the veneers. I would finance it but my credit is not that good.





Plus, I also am missing two teeth on the bottom, which my insurance won't cover and I would eventually like to replace these, that is another $6,000.





My dental plan is covered fuly by my job. But if I could find a plan that covers cosmetic dentistry I would pay it!! If you could help me I would appreciate it.





Please don't tell me that is too much to spend b/c I have checked with 2 dentists, I live in a rural area and not that close to urban places so I am already traveling to see the dentist! Thank you!!

insurance doesn't cover that. i would suggest saving up every penny, if yo really neeed them.
Reply:No insurance is going to cover cosmetic surgery. Dental plans only cover medically necessary procedures.
Reply:ins. plans won't cover cosmetic dentistry, but I know a discount dental plan (that isn't insurance) and it covers everything dental related for only $19.95 a month.


You can get 20-80% off all health services! They accept all on-going conditions (except braces in progress)


You can sign up for the plan, get the work done and then cancel the plan if you wish. It's all legit and they have over 100,000 providers nationwide. Please check out the website and if you have any questions, please call me. (My number is under the contact me section at the website!)


You'll want to look under the dental plus plan (for $19.95 a month) it also covers your entire household if anyone else needs things done as well.
Reply:try this they cover cosmetics and will find you a dentist that is a member of american dental association.


they have no waiting period and they accept pre-existing conditions too.

Reply:Yeah, I have to get veneers too, just get the six you need that you can see when you smile, and wait for the other two. You can always get them on in sections, like two at a time, etc, for the more noticable ones. Unfortunately I dont think there is an insurance plan for that, I have looked. See if you can work something out with the dentist like the two at a time thing, or just getting the ones you really need first, thats what i'm doing. Good luck!
