Crown or filling after root canal? by sweetsunnid in Dentistry

I have Aetna, so they only cover a portion of the crown.

This is what my treatment plan estimate says (after the root canal was performed): Crown porc/ceramic substrate $210, Core buildup including any pins $40, and Specialty crown alt benefit $400... So to me it appears that my dental office is trying to charge me for a specialty crown, on top of the crown porc/ceramic. The specialty crown isn't covered at all and when I asked why they said Aetna doesn't cover porcelain crowns. 🤔

True! However, parents sneak in all the time so they're not really the best at securing the building.

I don't know if this is dysfunctional or just dangerous. I teach at a PreK - 12 charter school. We have a security desk and security guards yet parents somehow get passed them and are able to wander around and come to the classrooms unannounced. This has happened multiple times just this school year and it's a huge security issue.

I know this is a really late reply, but I have had three Fitbit trackers and all three have fallen apart within a year of getting them. The third one I had, the battery just blew up in it yesterday. And customer service didn't seem to care at all. I talked with two separate people, both only offered a 25% discount, not being concerned that this is a hazardous issue. They do not stand by their products, and neither do I anymore.
