Dental Assistance [Anyone have info? Please check it out]

Post by Nickxm »

So basically after checking out a few places and talking to some friends and even family member friends, Dental issues are something that isn't that uncommon in the Kelowna area and I myself am no stranger to it with a very desperate need of dental work for both aesthetic reasons and health. (Feeling sick everyday just isn't as fun anymore.)

Dentists I have been too offer no kind of payment plans themselves and I am unable to find a suitable dental plan that I can undertake myself. I am working Part-Time and because of which am unable to receive benefits from my current employer as well leaving me pretty stranded with what seems to be a very large bill if I do plan to have any work done and wisdom teeth removed. (I'm sure most can relate to the pain that wisdom teeth can bring.)

So my basic question to the Castanet Forum is do you know of any dentists in the Kelowna or even surrounding area that offer payment plans and are willing to work with people that can't afford the absurd prices that most charge? I am really at wits end here and running out of options. This is kind of my last shot in the dark.

So thank you for your time reading this and help, feel free to reply or message me here with anything I should look into and such. I appreciate it.

Nick,

There was a thread about this a while ago and there were some good suggestions offered. Couldn't find it though :(

Yeah, I have been doing my paces searching for information and seem to always come up empty handed. It is really getting depressing, haha.
