Looking for dental-insurance suggestions
Retired-disabled, so lost work dental. I have $43/mo dental I'm not happy wroth the cost. I'm used to getting 2 free cleanings and checkups per yr. Yesterday, I had a cleaning that was $167, with this insurance. I was confused.

Staff said they didn't know how much the insurance would pay (!?), and any overpay would be credited to me. I'm still confused.

Any recommendations of decent dental insurance for someone on TRaditional Medicare? I can see how dental is a lure for Medicare Advantage. I'm kinda pissed, and may need a new dentist
