The cost of a dental visit for uninsured patients will vary depending on the location and dentist. On average, a dental visit will cost around $150 to $200. Uninsured people can check out local dental schools or health departments for low cost dentistry.
I just paid almost $300 for a child's abscessed primary tooth removal. That included x-ray, nitrous gas and removal. That did not include the standard office fees of about $60. No insurance. Sad part is, I paid $150 for an adult abscessed tooth removal about 5 years ago! But, it MUST be done, no matter the cost. Not treating it may cause serious problems.
For most the cost of dental benefits is less than your daily cup of coffee. Depending on what you buy that might be regular coffee or it might be Starbucks. (NOTE: Costs will vary by area of the country and coverage.) Individual policies are generally more expensive than a group policy and the coverage may also be limited. Individual policies do not cover orthodontia. There may also be other coverage limitations and/or waiting periods in individual products. The estimated national average monthly and annual dental premiums for 2007 are illustrated below for DHMO & DPPO: Individual: DHMO -- $14.19 a month--$170 annually (less than 50 cents a day) DPPO -- $43.64 a month--$524 annually ($1.46 a day) Family: DHMO -- $40.63 a month--$488 annually ($1.35) DPPO -- $127.64 a month--$1532 annually ($4.25 a day) Depending on the type of dental benefit-DHMO, DPPO or Dental Indemnity, the employee's premium is about the cost of having dinner out once a month-ranging from $19 to $35 monthly or $233 to $420 on an annual basis in 2008. Even at the high end of that range-dental benefits cost annually what medical premiums cost an individual on a monthly basis. Estimated annual dental premiums for 2009 are outlined below as national averages for typical group coverage: Employee Only (including orthodontia): DHMO -- $19.40 a month--$233 annually DPPO -- $35.02 a month--$420 annually Indemnity -- $30.87 a month--$370 annually Employee only (without orthodontia): DHMO -- $18.97 a month--$228 annually DPPO -- $28.77 a month--$345 annually Indemnity -- $30.32 a month--$364 annually Employee & Family(including orthodontia): DHMO -- $63.77a month--$765 annually DPPO -- $99.74 a month--$1197 annually Indemnity -- $104.78 a month--$1257 annually Discount Dental Plan fees can range from a few dollars a month to $10 or $12 dollars a month for an individual or $20 to 30 a month for a family.
---- This is the last data available from the National Association of Dental Plans; 2008 data is released mid-summer 2009. There was insufficient information reported in 2008 to calculate national average costs for individual dental indemnity/traditional coverage in 2007. Individual coverage premiums have not been updated since 2007.
DPPO premiums are estimated based on 100/80/50/50 coverage, i.e. 100% coverage of preventive, 80% coverage of basic and 50% coverage of major procedures with a $50 deductible. Different benefit structures will impact the estimated premium.
Family coverage extends to the insured, spouse and dependents-no matter the number. There are usually separate, lower rates for an insured with a single dependent. So a family policy covers 3 or more individuals.

If your lip piercing has abscessed, your first point of call should be a doctor. An abscessed piercing is a build up of pus and infected material which has been trapped under healed skin, and so it will need to be drained. Do not remove your jewellery unless you have spoken to a doctor and he has recommended it, because your piercing may not have abscessed. (It is very easy to assume that your piercing has abscessed when in fact it is just infected or healing in an unusual way.) You may wish to speak to your piercer also, unless you pierced yourself, which I would recommend against doing again.Speak to a doctorDo not remove the jewellery or attempt to drain it yourselfTalk to your piercer if you're unsure.

To find companies in your state that provide dental insurance or dental discount plans, go to the National Association of Dental Plans site (www.nadp.org) which has a directory of companies that offer dental insurance. The directory can be searched by state and you can select "individual" and get the list of just those companies that provide individual dental insurance in your state. The listing also tells you if the company provides dental HMO, dental PPO, dental indemnity (traditional insurance without a network) or a discount plan (not insurance but a discount off the dentist's fees who are part of the discount network).
The VAICD (Virginia Indigent Care Program) offers dental services nearly free of charge. If you can wait a month or two, apply for the program and if you meet their financial need requirements will be entitled to very cheap dental care.

It is highly discouraged to attempt to remove dental bonding without the help of a dental professional. These materials are designed to last a long time, even permanently. You risk permanently damaging your teeth, gums, and other oral tissues if proper safety precautions are not adhered to. On the other hand, a dentist has the knowledge, experience, and equipment needed to remove bonding safely, quickly, and painlessly. A word to the wise: "Avoid bargains in dentistry and parachutes."
