In-Network vs. Out-of-Network
You know, insurance is actually quite interesting. You know, some dentists have a partnership with your insurance company, and they are like "in-network" friends, with a closer relationship. If you go to these "in-network" dentists, your insurance will help you pay more, and you don't have to pay too much yourself.
But, if you suddenly decide to go to a dentist who doesn't cooperate with the insurance company, that is, "out-of-network", then you may have to pay more out of your own pocket. So, when it comes to dental care, you have to choose the right place, otherwise your wallet will suffer.
