Despite my HMO insurance, I spent over 2000 dollars combined this year on a #14 molar extraction with a bone graft, a permanent bridge, and a deep cleaning. My deep cleaning was today .It caught me off guard and cost $220 even with my insurance. My dentist said a deep cleaning is needed every two years.
I do not know if my unusual learning disability that effects my fine coordination and finger dexterity is a factor, but I have been unable to floss inside the small space above the bridge. even with the use of a dental floss threader. I am not even close to getting the thread inside this space, and I feel it is hopeless. I do have a small mouth as well, and cannot even locate the space.
Any suggestions? What are the consequences if i can't ever do it?
