What is the best plan for a student no longer covered under their parents' !

Question: What is the best plan for a student no longer covered under their parents' dental insurance?

I am a full-time student and I just turned 22 a couple of weeks ago. I found out at the dental office that I am no longer covered under my father's dental insurance (FEHB). The sad thing is that I had an appointment 2 days before my 22nd birthday but ended up rescheduling it after my birthday because I had thought my dental insurance would be extended until my 26th birthday (as my health insurance did). I'm almost positive that I have a couple of fillings that have come out and I have one that is so large i can feel it with my tongue. I'm scared it will get even larger where I will have to get a root canal and I definitely cannot afford that (I can't even afford to fill cavities) without insurance.

I was wondering what the best option is for me. If anyone knows any legit websites or dental insurances that are really affordable for students. I basically live off student loans right now and cannot afford to deal with any scams as well. If anyone could help me out, that would be great! The cavities are starting to ache and I would hate for this to also jeopardize my studying..

Medical Discount Plan
ideal for those who cannot afford or qualify for traditional health insurance. The companies offer discounted health services for a quite low monthly fee. Benefits include a range of discounts for doctors, hospitals, dental, vision, prescriptions, vitamins, as well as other health services.

Individual & Family Health Plans
This is a major health insurance plan for individuals and families. If you are looking for comprehensive long term health insurance coverage for yourself and/or your family members who are 62 years old or younger - this is the plan to choose.

Short Term Medical Plans
This plan is ideal for individuals in transition. Maybe you have just graduated from college and are no longer covered under your student health insurance or you moved out on your own, and you're no longer covered under your parents' medical insurance plan. Or perhaps you're employed part-time, going to school, leaving home for the first time, or even retiring early. Maybe you've found a new job, but your new employer's group health insurance plan won't kick in until you've been with months.
