I had teeth root canal problem not a few times, and the pain can cause one loose sleep overnight, so painful, (those experienced before will know well), but medical insurance is not covering those medical expenses.
And the operation easily cost a few thousand for full treatment if one doesn't want to opt to remove the teeth simply.
Please do not paint medical insurance is paying up every single medical treatment, the policy never said it does.
Every insurance has its own scope of coverage.
We do not want to see if anything happening on client then the client fail to claim compensation from insurance then accuse insurance is cheating them.
Insurance never cheat.
Eg. classic and typical situation may occur.
Hey agent, last time you said insurance is the only thing to pay for "unknown future medical expenses", now I have medical expenses on the root canal sickness, why insurance no pay me?
Dear,
I agree with you that it will only get more expensive to go for an operation. I agree with you that every insurance has its scope of coverage.
I don't practice medical so I'm not in a right position to advice. From my understanding whats dead, you must remove it from your body. Including your tooth. Case to case. If you do have a dead of half dead tooth its advise to remove it instead of doing a root canal because root canal can cause heart disease. Of cause "the doctor" usually will advice you to do a root canal because it cost 100 times more than to remove it. Google it over the internet.
Root canal aside. If you choose not to remove your tooth therefore it means to retain it for beauty purpose. Sorry to say most insurance company do not cover beauty surgery.
Lets talk about other serious diseases that involves the organs which will cost 10-100 times of the dental fees. It is classify under critical illness, for standard cases it will be covered.
