I had the the basic coverage, if you needed something like a root canal you were SOL. I was never offered crowns because of course since there was no root canal coverage you were more likely to have an extraction (which I did).

I started a couple implants right before the pandemic, realized I couldn’t afford it, so now I’m at the point where I need tons of dental work and a big part of it isn’t covered.

Hard to get a job with no teeth.

If you're an adult it doesn't cover much. I recently switched to OneCare (Commonwealth Care Alliance) and they have much better dental coverage including root canals.

I'm hoping since I was in the middle of implants they'll cover at least some of it- I can't afford to finish.

The main issue with CCA dentists/oral surgeons is they're difficult to find and are usually booked months in advance.

Any suggestions?

Framingham is much nicer than it used to be, lots of brand new rentals within walking distance of public transport and parks- I just wouldn’t live in the downtown area. Some nice older apartments on route 9.

Lived in Natick for over 25yrs until I had to move because I couldn’t afford it. Lots of nice places in the Natick area as well, but you will end up paying for it wherever you live.
