Guest guest Posted March 20, 2009 Report Share Posted March 20, 2009 Dear Terry, Medicare does not pay for any dental work. Obviously if you had an oral problem like ulcers or a cancer, they would definitely cover the cancer. If you had dental insurance, you would in all probabilitiy be covered, depending on the type of policy coverage. There are some inexpensive dental plans available, but I don't know if they are worth it, because the co-pay would be so high. If you wanted a good one, the premiums would be much higher. Sorry about your tooth. The same thing happened to me and before they could make a crown, I walked around covering my mouth with my hand. The first tooth broke off at the gum line right after I was diagnosed. If you see a line around your gum line, you have a severe problem. Take care of it ASAP. Good luck and suck it in, it's going to cost more than you think. I have paid thousands since my teeth started falling apart. Just wanted to brace you.
