Need 5 teeth removed dentist wants to take out wisdom teeth + 1 is impacted and ruined molar. Should i get off marketplace DHMO to reduce costs now, get DPPO on the market, both or get the 1 PPO that has no wait but only 15% first year

That’s basically it, broken tooth keeps flaring up. my wisdom tooth grew in sideways towards the molar, ruined it and then broke. where it broke through gum there’s a big hole now and it keeps trying to get infected while waiting. we got insurance but mail and issues meant we missed payment and lost it.

Need dental surgery. The other 3 molars are fine except crowding on the lower teeth. wanted to charge $300+ per tooth plus like 1500 for the surgery+molar extraction. (am not going back there)

When we move we will need to sign up again but as far as i know we need to be insured via marketplace now to qualify for the marketplace prices after the move.

So my options are.

A: Get cheapest PPO from marketplace for basic cleaning and stuff like $17 (but not be in state long enough to pass waiting period for any other coverage to matter) But qualify for the Marketplace prices after we move. (i think, i am not sure how that works)

B: get a DHMO that works now and will reduce the costs by 15-60% for work done and pay all out of pocket for that. (like $10 for just me or $16 as my partner needs a few fillings)

C: get both for coverage now and to qualify for marketplace insurance after move….if i can i don’t know if you can have multiple dental insurances going.

And then the wild card

D: there’s exactly one PPO on the marketplace that covers minor and major work without a waiting period, but is $41 a month and only covers 15% for the first year.

D is a wild card because insurance makes no GD sense to me. It could be the best option, or the worst, i dunno.

Like, which of the bellow examples is correct.

Example 1:

PPO doesn’t offer major work for 6 months but has negotiated rates in network so I pay 100% of $150 for a procedure that is $300 uninsured.

Example 2:

PPO doesn’t offer major work for 6 months so I pay $300 out of pocket for procedure as if I were uninsured even in network.

And the wild card example 3:

PPO covers 15% and also has negotiated rates so I pay 85% of $150 in network procedure that is $300 uninsured.

If it’s example 2 or if PPO’s don’t negotiate rates as low as HMO’s doesn’t it make more sense to get a HMO that kicks in the next day and gives 15%-60% off procedures?

But if example 3 is true then even at the higher cost it’s the best option.
