s been hard at times w/o good dental
insurance. What I do is go over to the
dental school and I can get my teeth cleaned by the students there. It takes 5 times longer, but a cleaning is like $15.00 and I got 4 bitewing X-rays for an additional $5.00. After the students get done, their work is checked by an instructor and then, a dentist walks over and checks it, too. So, you have 3 people looking in your mouth and you're there for hours. Not pleasant, but you do what you have to.
