General information regarding your health care
The information and content (collectively, "Content") on this website is for your general educational information only. The Content cannot, and is not intended to, replace the relationship that you have with your health care professionals. The Content on this website is not medical advice. You should always talk to your health care professionals for information concerning diagnosis and treatment, including information regarding which drugs or treatment may be appropriate for you. None of the information on this website represents or warrants that any particular drug or treatment is safe, appropriate or effective for you. Health information changes quickly. Therefore, it is always best to confirm information with your health care professionals.
The Dental Care Cost Estimator sometimes groups together, into "treatment categories," services that are often delivered together to address a particular dental problem. The description of different treatment categories, and the inclusion of particular services in a treatment category, is not advice that any particular treatment category is the right treatment for you or that you should not obtain any particular treatment. All of those matters are things that you should decide, in consultation with your dental care professionals. This cost estimator is intended for use in the 50 states, Puerto Rico and other U.S. territories. If you live outside the U.S., you may see information on this cost estimator about products or services that are not available or authorized in your country.

More information regarding how cost estimates are calculated
Cost estimates for services provided by out-of-network dentists (available in the out-of-network estimator) are based upon submitted claims data for out-of-network providers. The data is based on actual, non-discounted charges that providers have billed.
Cost estimates are specific to geographic areas, as defined by the first three digits of a ZIP code (e.g., the geo ZIP for 12345 is 123).
Here are the benefits of creating an account
There are very few things scarier than being told you have oral cancer. It can affect the lips, tongue, mouth, and throat. You may feel like you’re in shock. You may not even want to believe what the doctor has told you. And there are probably so many questions you want to ask but think you can’t because you don’t know where to start.
First of all, it’s okay to be overwhelmed. And it’s okay to feel afraid. But you shouldn’t let those feelings stop you from finding out as much as you can about your cancer and about the options you have. Because the more you know, the less helpless and afraid you will feel. And the more you know, the better you will be able to work with your healthcare team to make the best choices for your treatment.
To decide the best course of treatment, your doctor needs to know as much as possible about your cancer. This will involve getting a variety of tests and working with a team of healthcare professionals.
The main treatment options are surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, and newer targeted therapies. These may be used either alone or in combination, depending on the stage and location of the tumor.
After the cancer is discovered and staged, your doctor will discuss treatment choices with you. It is important to take time and think about your options. When you choose a treatment plan, consider your overall health, the type and stage of the cancer, the chances of curing the disease, and the impact of the treatment on functions like speech, chewing, and swallowing.
It can be helpful to seek a second opinion. A second opinion can provide more information and help you feel more comfortable with the treatment plan you select.
