Wisdom teeth/cysts/insurance issues - how fast does a cyst grow?

Went to the oral surgeon yesterday for a consultation to find that one of my wis/teeth is severely impacted and has developed a cyst. It's small as of now, but we don't know when it started to develop. Here's the catch: after an hour long consultation she tells me that dental insurance won't cover the impacted teeth, medical insurance does. And she doesn't accept mine. I'd need a hospital surgery and it will be very expensive. A couple of things–


A) I really like this doctor and would prefer her to do the procedure. I am insanely anxious when it comes to medical ANYTHING.


B) With my current insurance, even if I saw another doctor I'd have to pay a $600 deductible+20% of procedure.


C) I have the option of changing my insurance in January to one that the current doc accepts, and it would be fully covered.


I told the doc about option C and she thinks it would be ok to wait until January. Right now they are not bothering me. How fast do these cysts typically grow? Is this a bad idea?

Screw you! Some of us don't even have medical insurance, or dental insurance and we're middle aged.





If you've got a job with medical insurance then you're doing better than most people- just shut up and pay the difference.





Some of us just have to make monthly payments to the doctors to keep from dying

America is fast becoming filled with bitter have nots.





The woman asked an honest question and gets berated because some jack *** who never went to school to better himself is jealous.





Larry you are a loser pal. Report It

Reply:They come and go very quickly but it does take a while to notice a difference in size. You should be fine until January but if you do start to feel extreme painyou may need the surguryt immediatly and overcome your anxiety of medical procedures. I am the same way when it comes to anything medical... I need to trust you in order for you to be in charge of my health.
