Yes, indeed, it pays to shop around, including for dental services. My dentist in Hubbard, Ohio, Dr. Braydich, charges $125 for dental guards for folks who grind their teeth at night, while a local dentist's quote was over $300 more! I don't have dental insurance. I have two road trips to Youngstown planned, one for March 27th through the 30th, and the second one, to get fitted for the dental guard, has yet to be arranged. I am also planning to go to Wisconsin, Iowa, and Missouri the first eight days or so of April, that is, if the weather is halfway decent!
