    Default Bastards!!!

    So...5 years ago, I needed to get my wisdom teeth pulled. Had insurance and the request got turned down for oral surgery because they claimed that my teeth were tissue impacted. Well...I finally went back to the dentist today because my teeth are hurting so bad and I know I need to get them pulled. I figured no problem because they are pushing through more and not so tissue impacted...

    Well, I was fucking wrong because my 2 bottom wisdom teeth are fucking boney impacted and I have to go to an oral surgeon to get them removed. I wish I could call up my old insurance company and make them pay for it since they denied a rightful claim.

    I'm sure it's too late now...but, BASTARDS!! All that money spent on the fucking insurance and I couldn't even use it.

    BASTARDS!!

    (not like I'm angry or anything. heh)

    Sorry to hear that.

    I hope there's new insurance that's more reliable.

    Now, take a cleansing breath and chant:

Then, during the third reconciliation of the last of the McKetrick supplicants, they chose a new form for him: that of a giant Slor! Many Shuvs and Zuuls knew what it was to be roasted in the depths of the Slor that day, I can tell you!"

    So sorry to hear this, dear! Can you contest the claim?
    When I had my first WT pulled, I had no insurance. It was bad, abcessed, etc.
    I hope maybe some way you'll get the $ back, maybe from working or something else.
    That really suks, tho.

    I think that I am going to do some researching into the legalities of insurance denying rightful claims. I do not know what the statute on that is...

    I'm mad cuz it could have been done a long time ago...and also because it's going to cost a nice heap of money.

    Yeah, dental sucks.

    I had to have my wisdoms out, but still had to pay nearly $3K out of pocket. They would only cover 20% or some crappy amount.

    Yeah...the insurance I had would pay full cost of having boney impactions removed. But, wouldn't cover any of the cost of having tissue impactions removed.

    I should have not had the insurance and saved that money up. LOL...would have gotten more than a cheapy paper card then.

    The only good thing right now is that as a result of the impaction, I have a bad infection in the tooth (it cracked and is infected). Hurts like an MFer...but now I have Codeine and Penicillin. So, I'm not feeling any pain...heh

    ouch!!!

    if you could prove that they turned down a rightful claim years ago, maybe call them and tell them about it?

    But i doubt that will help. Insurance companies SUCK! I went into the hospital for anorexia after my mom dropped her insurance when i was a kid and it was something like 70k in medical bills out of my dads pocket. <roar>

    After I had to pay 100% of my wisdom tooth extractions, I dumped my dental insurance. They barely paid half of any cleanings I had done. After doing the math, I was better off without them than with em. No sense throwing good money after bad.

    Guardian Dental. Those fuckers are a complete rip off.

    I will tell you I was plenty glad to have savings to cover the costs. I think I will be doing that more often.

    Sorry this happened to you. Mine were impacted too and my insurance wouldn't pay for it... aetna is the most useless insurance I've ever had. And it was expensive! I had to pay out of pocket well over a grand just to get the 2 bottom ones out last year. For a grad student only able to work part-time (not stripping either, I'm making like no money right now) that sucked real bad. But they were infected and really painful, I had no choice. Insurance rat bastards. I hate them all!

    I had somewhat of the same problem with Delta Dental... too bad it all happened when I had oral surgery to remove all wisdom teeth then told a week later by a Delta Dental representive that they would only cover 30%. I have safe guard now and I am very happy.

    I may have many faults, but being wrong ain't one of them.

    Sounds like some of you should combine a vacation trip to Mexico with expensive dental surgeries. It's safer than it sounds. My fillings are still in, from about a year ago.

    Meanwhile, my thousand dollar molar crown I got in CA is giving me grief. No guarantees in this world......

    Sorry for all your financial troubles & pains with this. Maybe I can help
    with some dental humor...

    I was getting a cap put on my tooth one time and the dentist DROPS it.
    He and his assistant can't find it! So, I happen to be awesome at finding
    stuff because I'm very good at thinking of all possiblities. So I jump off the
    chair and within 30 seconds I ask him to check the cuff of his pants... bingo!
    LOL Dentists LOVE this story.
    Beauty is in the eye of the beer-holder.
