I want to have my extremely messed up wisdom teeth pulled, but here in the USA I am looking at paying ,000; that is, ,000 per tooth! I am also an up-and-coming traveler, and was wondering if I could go to another country-Thailand maybe? Or somewhere with good dental care-and get them removed for less. If anyone can tell me more about this I would greatly appreciate it.

for example if i wanted to have a general check up from both doctors, what would be the average pricing, for a good dentist and eye doctor in a nice neighbourhood?

Small business (only 4 employees), want to set up plan. Do I HAVE to go through a 3rd party administrator, or can we keep it in-house.
Are there any tax ramifications either way.
This is for SELF FUNDED. Not wanting to buy an outside plan or insurance.

when you have dental implants put in, do they usually put you to sleep?

just need to know if theres a tax benefit that allows you to deduct any of the money we spend for health insurance

I work as a craftsperson and live in VT. THe chamber of COmmerce is too costly to join.

MY employer offers dental plan for family (My two kids and I) for 00 year. The pay 100% on Xrays and cleanings and progressively pays less on the other work. Like 80% on fillings but less on root canals and more extensive work. They pay ZERO on Orthodontist and my son needs braces badly. My children have always had pretty good checkups. I was thinking I could just pay out of pocket and be under this amount. But I have heard of the Dental Discount plans that are very cheap and just give you discounts on all services. Would the Discount Plan give me a discount also on braces. I think that might be the way to go. p.s. I dont need dental work for myself. I just brush/floss. Thank you.
