The small town where I live has a small local college with a very good dental hygeine program. I recently had a full set of x-rays and cleaning for $10.00. This also included them forwarding my xrays to the local dentist. It takes ALOT longer since they are students but hey money is money. I also found out you can get a massage for $10.00 as well.

For my wife to get a filling in Maine was going to cost several hundred dollars, while she can get it done here (with top-of-the-line everything) for less than $40 US. That is FAR less than our insurance co-pay for the treatment in the States! It isn't for everyone, sure, but it can sure lead to savings.

They take a lot longer but the cost is about the same as what I would pay if I had insurance. Another good way to save money on dental care is to go to a local dental care.
