I recently had a dental procedure done that I paid full price for. Than…afterward, I found out my insurance would have covered that. Shouldn’t my dentist’s office have taken care of that? It’s hard enough affording the dentist without having to pay extra.

Melissa,
Some dental offices do the filing for you and others expect you to do it yourself. I would discuss it with your dentist’s business office. If they want you to do the filing, it will be a little harder to get all the bang for your buck. They know the insurance policy better than you do.
I would look for a clinic that will work with you to get the most out of your dental insurance. Otherwise it is a waste of money and your funds.
