When I needed to have my amagams out, I had no money because I was sick and out of work. So, my dentist's office had this CARE CREDIT plan which is like a charge card for your dental work. I applied and was approved. My entire amalgam removal (25 amalgams) and 2 root canals extracted and then bridges were needed cost me $10,000. The truth is that after all was said and done, I could not keep up with the monthly payments and I ended up having to file for bankruptcy anyway, so my dental work ended up being done for free. I didn't plan this. Things just got that bad after a while. For those of you who are struggling and sick and need your amalgams out, find a dentist with the CARE CREDIT plan and use it!! You'll just have to come up with a monthly payment.
