Report
Spoke to a very nice lady on the phone. Emergency dental in my mind is something that could have potential medically for a patient, like an abscessed tooth. Eligibility shouldn't be based on the type of coverage a patient has. This is nothing against the lady who answered the phone but on a cynical business practice that can turn people away who have the potential for an even greater emergency. Dentists should be held to the same standards as doctors because in some cases "dental emergencies" can be life threatening if not addressed.
