Mine was way more than that. Around $1000, half of it covered by insurance.
Spike's Bitches 42: Which question do you want me to answer first?
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
It's totally Mistress SA.
My insurance is supposed to cover 80% but they wouldn't pay for my $500 night guard. Luckily the dentist was able to determine this before they made it for me so I didn't have to pay for it. I got a $25 model from the drug store instead.
Yay Mistress Master SA!

IT Guy and I are discussing a thing my Dept needs that refuses to run and he is currently stumped about.
IT Guy: I don't know. I may just have to re-boot Uranus.

Was that through your dental or through your medical? I know with my last good coverage, medical would cover it if the dentist says its necessary for TMJ reasons. My current coverage is crap, but I got the cheapest I could afford.
Sorry about the poopyhead editors, Barb.
Thanks, Laura. I'm... kind of stunned, actually. Not that I ever expect anything and I've ceased being surprised or shocked by anything with respect to publishing, but I'm just sort of hovering on this precipice of "What's wrong with me?" which I know is stupid and self=pitying, which in turn, pisses me off. It's kind of a vicious cycle and I don't exactly know how to break it.
Chocolate and a good scotch.
Was that through your dental or through your medical?
It was through dental but I have bruxism, not TMJ. Still I'll ask my dentist next time I go if it would be possible to go through my medical instead.
I have bruxism, not TMJ
Ah. I was conflating the two in my head. I thought one (bruxism) was part of the other. My problem was bruxism, too. But I found that once I quit the job I'd had for eleven years, it pretty much went away.
