When Johnny was diagnosed with inoperable brain cancer 19 years ago at age 15, he was able to overcome it with a series of chemotherapy and radiation treatments. Although these treatments saved his life, they damaged the enamel of his teeth. This led to several dental issues over the years that he didn't have the financial resources to treat.
As a lacrosse player, Johnny lives an active lifestyle but his dental issues became so bad that eventually they kept him off of the field due to the severe pain they caused. When he finally visited the dentist a year and a half ago during the pandemic, he found out that he would need extensive work to repair the damage to his teeth and relieve this pain.
Although Johnny wanted to have the dental work done, he didn't have the funds immediately available to pay for the cost of his dental care all at once. That's when his dentist suggested that he apply for the CareCredit credit card so he could pay over time.
Johnny applied for CareCredit right in the dentist's office and was approved within minutes. He was then able to start using the card that same day and took advantage of its promotional financing.
Now Johnny is free of pain and back on the field. He also plans to continue to use his CareCredit credit card to pay for his dental and health care needs, as does his sister who recently used her CareCredit card to pay for some dental work prior to her wedding.
