I am self-employed and don't have dental insurance. I hadn't visited the dentist in years, because I thought visits would be expensive when paying out-of-pocket. I began to have tooth pain, and I knew it was finally time to visit the dentist. You could say that it was a blessing in disguise, because I learned that dental visits were not only less expensive than I thought, but I even found a great dentist that offered a monthly payment plan.

I hope someone reading this blog learns from my experience and stops putting off dental visits before they end up in pain, like me. You can find a great dentist that even offers financing !
