Nasty motherfukkers. :scust:


Teeth (if you have them) sitting your gums like :bryan:!
I don't even blame people. Dental coverage / insurance in the US is garbage, which can make the treatment expensive. During my college years I had it rough, because I didn't have great coverage nor the money to fix cavities / tooth infections as they came up. I've spent thousands to get my teeth straight. I didn't actually know how to properly floss nor brush my teeth(like when and how often) until I was in my late 20's.

Also dental care / health is strongly linked to socioeconomic status:

Yea ... Dental insurance is the worse thing I've ever seen.

All these posters are in college? :stopitslime:
They don't have dental insurance? :usure:
I thought everyone on the coli was 6 certs, 6 figs? :francis:



This same dumb nikka logic is why brehs/brehettes get fukked up so quickly not going to the doctor. Folks wanted to blame the healthcare system for racism when rona hit but don't even get regular check-ups. :snoop:


Imagine tryna get in a broad's mouf and she tells you she ain't been to the dentist since Obama was in office. :huhldup:



Nah, folks got money for the club, Cool Greys, PS5's, Spider-Man, 4 dollar gas, weed, liquor, and iPhones, they got money for this dental copay. :camby:

Twice a yr.. just went on Saturday...fresh mouth

Thursday.

That feeling when the varnish goes on the teeth. :blessed:

When the cleaning takes less time than an NASCAR pit stop. :blessed:

When the hygienist thanks you for not having a yuck-mouth that she has to clean. :blessed:


But they forgot to give a nikka his toy out the toy chest. :dahell:

I'm only speaking on me and my perspective. :hubie:

Dental insurance for many is a luxury. Having great coverage from your employer is a luxury. A lot of people who don't make much can't "afford it".

Trust me, I get you on the bootstrapping of priorities, but many people feel like paying for dental insurance or going to the dentist when there is no pain, is a waste of time / money, until it's an emergency.

That's how Americans are. American's don't even want to take a vaccine for free, that lessens their symptoms to Covid19. American is very anti-preventive health.

Oh and I def ain't fukking with a broad like that.

Americans are also fat as fukk (which supports your anti-prevention argument) so :manny:.


I guess I'll continue to get my shyt checked out regularly (like a car) at the doc and dentist's office versus waiting until something pops off and then paying through the nose for it. :yeshrug:

Dental insurance for me is $17 a month. Free 2x yearly cleanings and exams.

man they got cleaning/exam deals at the dentist for $70 if you got no insurance. Sometimes dental schools at your local university will have free cleanings by students who are about to graduate.

like @The Butcher said, nikkas got money for everything else

Usually twice a year.

But I haven't been since March of of last year.

My hygienist is kind mad that I cancelled twice on her but I ain't going back until I get a vaccine.

fukk all that

Went twice in 2021

Had an appointment last week but cancelled again because we were getting a million cases a day so I had to fall back

:hubie:



Rescheduled for February. Just hoping I don't get booted for cancelling so much
