Hello. I am on Medicare and I keep getting turned down for dental insurance. I need a lot of work done on my teeth. I don’t want to lose any teeth so I am going to have to pay out of pocket somehow. How can I find a dentist who will see me even if I don’t have insurance? Thank you so much. – Liz

Liz – There are many dentists who accept forms of payment other than dental insurance.

Dentists often accept major credit cards, some have in-office payment plans, and others offer financing. An easy way to find out is by looking at a dentist’s website and viewing the financial policies or financial arrangements web page.

You will be pleasantly surprised by the number of dentists who accept alternative forms of payment to dental insurance. You will be able to get the dental care you need, even though you don’t have insurance.

I’m 16 and I am trying to be a model, but my teeth are my biggest problem. I want a snap on smile but I don’t have the money to pay for them up front. Can you pay for snap on smile in monthly payments? – Tamera

Tamera – Whether or not you can receive a Snap-On Smile and use a payment plan for it depends on the dentist you visit, and whether or not you qualify for a payment plan. Many dentists offer payment plans to qualifying applicants. Payment plans may be available for services over a specific dollar amount. Check with your dentist, or the dentist of your choice, to learn whether or not payment plans are available for a Snap-On Smile.

You may have already done research on the Snap-On Smile, but below is some information you might consider:

  • The Snap-On Smile is a temporary smile makeover.
  • You will be able to choose the shape and shade of your smile.
  • If you wear it only on special occasions, it can last several years, but if you wear it every day, it will only last a few months.
  • It fits over your teeth, so it can make them look bulky.
  • A dentist needs to determine if it is right for your case.

Although you want a solution to conceal your teeth while you model, also consider permanent solutions for the future. A Snap-On Smile will eventually wear out, and you will need another one. Ask your dentist about the options for restoring your smile so you can plan and save for a restoration that will last.
