Dental update
Well going to UCSF dental school is certainly not easy, but we have found some ways to make it fun. After all IKEA is only 15 minutes away! lol But seriously here is what has happened so far. Since it is a school it is a process. If you choose to do your dental work this way be prepared to spend some time. You first go in for xrays if you don't already have them with an evaluation. After the eval, you then go back for the treatment plan. The cost for that is pretty comparable to a regular dentist. Ken needs 4 teeth pulled including a impacted wisdom tooth. My daughter was charged $2400.00 to have all 4 teeth pulled at her dentist and they told Ken it will be $800 so that seems like a pretty good savings. Recently I had a dental emergency forcing me to go to a local clinic. They gave me a treatment plan totalling $4500.00. I plan to take my xrays to the dental school to get a really good cost comparison. I'm glad I will have the opportunity to put it to the test. I will let you know how it all turns out.
