Tell me about it. Oh, you need a root canal and a crown we won’t cover that it’ll be out of pocket for 3 grand. But we do cover pulling the tooth out. Then we don’t have to worry about that pesky tooth no more.

You can still eat and live, your options do become limited however.

The real sad thing is, dental insurance removes customers by doing this so it must still be more profitable to do this than it is to keep them some years longer.
