I've been avoiding getting a tooth replaced that was pulled early this year due to cost. Now that I need another pulled I would consider going to MX to get them both taken care of, guessing around $6k. I would opt for something like Walmart if such existed in my neck of the woods, first I've heard of it.
6k ??? 6000 dollars to have two teeth pulled and replaced ?? I don't know where you are getting your dental work done but, it would not cost that much around here. Probably half that at the most.
Unless, there are extenuating circumstances that I am not aware of.
And,,,, I will admit that I am only 55 and I have been lucky. I also started taking better care of my teeth a few decades ago. I wish I had done a better job when I was younger. (I try to tell young people but, they don't listen. Nobody ever tried to tell me though.) I have had one tooth pulled and replaced with a "Wing Bridge" . That was 25 years ago and it's still hanging in there. I also have had one wisdom tooth pulled.
Other wise I cut the pop back to one can a day in the morning. I don't eat candy. I do a good job of brushing/flossing once a day and sometimes a quick job second time a day. And, twice a year I go to the dentist and for $104 the dental assistant cleans, polishes them, the dentist comes in and looks them over and sends me on my way. I just had that done on Monday.
I did have a filling replaced last year. I don't know remember how much it cost so it must not have been to expensive.
