Its says way more about our health care industry that even WITH insurance, dental everything is insanely expensive and almost always out of pocket with crazy deductibles

​

and Dental health insurance isn't even included in health insurance

There's a LOT of dental professionals and the ADA that have been pushing for legislation to include dental as part of health insurance because what happens in your mouth affects the rest of your HEALTH. Your eyes and teeth are not separate from the rest of your body and shouldn't be classified as so with insurance.

Jesus Christ, that's insane. Not that either of those SHOULD be expensive, but like... The less invasive procedure takes fewer supplies, less time, less recovery, less risk...

Fuuuuuck the US health care system.
