My sister was told that her daughter needs dental work (which we knew) she has some bottle rot on her teeth and some other problems (her daddy doesn't have great teeth either) The total ends up being somewhere around $3000 for the dental part but because my neice is only 2 they have to do this in the hospital which their insurance won't cover since it's age related. So they are looking at several more thousands of dollars to pay the hospital portion. Now my sister and her husband don't have any money and her in debt alreadym they have had a rough couple years lioke most people with the economy the way it is. The insurance will cover something like $800 of the dental, maybe more I think they are waiting til after the first of the year hoping the amount the insurance will cover is different.
i guess they are talking about crown and fillings for her teeth, which I have nevr heard of on baby teeth.
Has anyone else had experince with the sort of thing? Does this effect the teeth coming in, if they aren't able to cover it?
They are going to use their tax return for this as well, but are debating on just doing the front teeth for cosmetic reasons (so she won't be made fun of in school).
What would you do?
