Hello,
I went to the dentist the other week and was told that I needed to get a tooth out...bummer...He would not take it out as it is too weak and would shatter so I have to be put to sleep and have it extracted. I have health insurance with bupa (essential plus).
Can anyone tell me if this is covered by bupa. I have been told by bupa that they only cover wisdom teeth extractions. A friend told me that as it is now surgery in a hospital that it should be covered. (she has a basic vhi policy and she was covered for the same procedure)
thanks
