Relydria,

That's one reason it's good to visit the dentist twice a year (the standard). Because if you do, then problems can get caught in time.....BEFORE they get bad enough to cost that kind of money. Yup, dentists can be expensive all right. Good luck.

Ugh, I can relate to this, Rely. Hubby has just been to his first appointment in about 7 years and he's facing something similar. So I'm feeling a little déjà vu reading your post, because I just had this conversation with him! LOL!


Personally, I think going to the dentist twice a year is highly overrated, especially if you brush regularly. I would never tell someone that they shouldn't go twice a year, but I personally don't. In fact, I only go when I have a problem, and that works for me. My last dentist appointment was 2 years ago, and that was after not having been for 10 years. I was having jaw problems, rather than teeth problems.
