(please read to the end) Everyone knows that dental work can be expensive. And people ( like me) often skip going to the dentist, even if I do have dental insurance, because unfortunately, the insurance doesn’t cover much work. But then the pain came I found out, I had a root canal, with an additional tooth next to it that would soon become a root canal and I knew I was going to need help. I was very lucky to find the Austin Oral Surgery in Marble Falls. I came to them, told them that as much as I wanted to save my teeth, I was on a very VERY tiny budget. And as much as I hated to, I was going to have to get my teeth pulled. 😭 They were very understanding of my financial constraints, and went over all of the different options with me, included payment plans. Making sure that they had all my insurance information and calling the insurance company to make sure that there were no other options available to me through my insurance that perhaps I had missed. I was given a much lower estimate than I originally had budgeted for, and I was so grateful to the hard-working people at this wonderful clinic, that I quite literally broke down in tears. (I had also unfortunately broken my glasses at the time, and it was being held together with duct tape. And with this, it meant, I could also afford to go get new glasses! )And I was just so grateful! I am now five days out from getting my teeth pulled. I’m having no pain, I’m healing really well, and I’ve made sure to follow all of their directions. The procedure took about two minutes to be quite honest. I was lucky that the teeth came out very easily and quickly. Though your experience, of course may take longer. They were very, very careful to make sure I was completely numb and waited nearly half an hour to make absolutely sure that I felt no pain!! For which I am extremely grateful because I’m a giant weenie when it comes to pain! Every step was explained to me, and I was sent home with a small care package of postop instructions, extra gauze, their numbers highlighted if there was ever an emergency, and anything else that I might need. It even came with a personal tiny Chapstick just for me! I felt so well taken care of. ❤️❤️And I’m so very grateful to everyone that works there. It’s not always a stress-free or easy experience to go to a dentist, but I’m so grateful that everyone at the oral surgery clinic, went above and beyond, not only to help me when it came to my financial constraints, but also to my care before and after. If God forbid, I ever I have to get another tooth pulled, this will be the first place that I go. Because I know that I will have everything I need from start to finish. I wholeheartedly Thank everyone working there from the bottom of my heart! ❤️
