Thanks so much for your reply FL Mary.
I go to Specialist dentists (prosthodontist, periodontist, etc.) and have done a lot of dental work including two implants and many teeth on their 3rd crown. My prosthodontist said the x-ray was suspicious, so I had the CT scan this morning and await the report on it. I am due for my 6-month Prolia shot tomorrow and delayed it for a week in case I need to do something like a root canal. I don't want to risk jaw necrosis being so close to a new Prolia injection. And I have to juggle it against my lung issues.
I "self-insure" for dental needs. When I worked, my company paid my dental insurance so I would get reimbursed something. But I saw that they decided what a procedure would cost which was much less than what my Specialists charged (like a crown!) and then they paid half of their price not the real price. So, when I retired, I did not buy dental insurance because there wasn't much left to do in my mouth as most teeth already crowned. And I certainly was not going to their network of dentists! So the annual premium cost vs. my dental costs was not very interesting
