but with my insurance plans I am limited
Yeah
Considering your current situation you may be limited.
Once you get that fixed... how much are you paying for that dental insurance? Lots of plans have very low caps.
I think mine is like $16 a month for $1,500 coverage. How much is cash pay for a cleaning? Might not be that much more expensive to just cash pay it for a cleaning.

About $125 if your gums are healthy. Maybe a little more at some places. That's for cleaning, exam, and xrays.

I pay about $35 a month. I get preventative like teeth cleaning x-rays, fluoride paid for, but fillings, crowns, and dentures are 50 percent with a cap of $1000 with a $100 deductible. I'm convinced that for the average person the premiums, co-pays and deductibles for the doctor gives you a better return than the damn dentist per dollar.

Drop the insurance plan and find a dentist that has their own savings plan.
