Look at a necessary $7000 dental procedure. This is my portion with dental insurance. Hoping to put it off several years until Medicare kicks in. #LuxuryBones

When ppl ask why my teeth are so fucked up, it's a two part answer. One, it took 10yrs to get drs to listen & get a Gastroparesis diagnosis. Two, the US govt considers teeth luxury bones. #LuxuryBones Isn't that a riot? #disability #Healthcare

I wonder if I should get a broken tooth fixed with the last of my HSA before the dollar is worthless and/or Musk's teen minions raid all our accounts of our only saved dollars.

Nothing says fun quite like $800 dollars (after insurance) worth of dental work right before the holidays.

#LuxuryBones #Owwwww

So I can either pay $400 to get the tooth removed and cripple my ability to chew or $4000 for a procedure that isn’t guaranteed to work to try to exquisite corpse the tooth. #luxurybones #ontario

dental insurance is a scam. #teef #luxurybones

you can't remove fluoride if you're never going to include dental care in medical coverage. #luxurybones
