For all the dental work that I’ve had to get in the last few days. Over the weekend I had a raging tooth infection that turned into an emergency root canal yesterday. The nerve had completely died and I had to have a root canal. For the second time in less than a year. 😒🤕😭

I’m sure that you can guess by now that I’ve completely run out of my benefit in my dental insurance months ago. It doesn’t reset until the fiscal year starts on July 1st. I’ve been limping along with temporary crowns on another tooth for a few months now, while I wait for the benefit to reset so that I can afford to replace the crown since that cost upwards of $1,000. Guess how much my lovely new root canal cost yesterday? $975!!!!

I’m not going to be the kind of person that crowdsources their medical bills but this is getting ridiculous! I think what I’m going to do is take out a personal loan and pay that back over four years. How crazy is that?? That personal loan will also take care of my credit card debt but it’s hard for me to Fathom that this country is okay with the fact that people have to take out loans in order to pay for needed things like root canals and crowns for their teeth!!
