Hello Everyone- Miss Kate here- it’s been a long long time since I have come here. Everything is going pretty well.

Wondering if anyone has been able to get Medical Insueandd Cvs e coverage for any dental procedure you’ve had related to Orl cancer?

My lower teeth were starting to get into really really bad shape and during a recent surgery (long story!) I had two teeth knocked out. Since I cannot have implants or extractions and a partial denture with the remaining teeth would have only caused more decay I opted to have partial root canals on all the remaining lower teeth. I was in a lot of pain and the teeth looked really bad too and it was effecting my eating and speaking quite a bit.

My question is how could I try and get medical coverage for the endonic work and or the partial denture work? The end pics cost about $8600 which I was luckily able to put onto a care credit account. I feel like the damage to my teeth is 💯 to the radiation and lack of having a tongue anymore to swallow.

Just wondering if others have gone through this and how was your experience.

Thanks in advance! Kate
