What is the cost per tooth for cosmetic dentistry? And did you get a loan to have your teeth done?

I read up about the procedure for cosmetic dentistry, and I want to know what it cost you to have cosmetic dentistry done on your teeth, what insurance company covered you, and if you took out a loan to get that done which loan company did you use?

What is the cost per tooth for cosmetic dentistry? And did you get a loan to have your teeth done?
I've had 11 crowns for restorative purposes but the cosmetic effect is the same as having them done for THAT purpose, and it was about one thousand per crown. A friend is having veneers and crowns specifically for cosmetic purposes only, and he also told me one thousand each. That's a pretty good average for cosmetic work per tooth.





Occasionally at times I had dental insurance they'd cover up to a certain amount per year (most plans cap it at one thousand, others two.) Of course, that includes all the other dental work included over the course of a year, not just crowns. Without insurance I just paid privately. But I must warn you, if you are having it done specifically for cosmetic purposes, they will NOT cover the procedures at all. Mine had to have series of x-rays, photos and dentist's reports for the teeth in question just to prove that my work was necessary, not cosmetic. In fact I had coverage for one tooth declined for that very reason. As for a loan, ask the dentist office. I'm sure they have financing steps they will help you through.
Reply:what kind of cosmatic dentistry are you talking about? Most cosmatic dentistry could be expensive. you are looking at anywhere from $500 to $2000 a tooth. That also depends on where you live and the dentist himself they all have different fees. Insurance does not cover anything cosmatic. Most dentist have care crdit which is kind of like a payment plan. I know because we have it at my husbands clinick
Reply:Depends on the kind of cosmetic dentistry, it could be anywhere


between $100- $1,000 per tooth or more. In addition to eHealthPlus


discount I was also offered the zero interest loan for 12 months


with the loan company dentist worked with.
Reply:most dental work these days have a pretty hefty price tag......fortunately, there are now discount benefits available where you can save from 25% to 80%--it's like having a grocery store discount card and they also come with additional discounts on vision, chiropractic and prescription at no additional charge.
