Does my medical aid plan cover a dentist? i am in excruciating pain, chipped my tooth at the back a week ago and it hurts so bad now.

Can't tell: We have no way of knowing what your plan covers or does not cover. You can contact yu plan administrator directly. If you were issued an ID card it should have a telephone number for you to call. Or you could contact a local Dentist who may be able to contact the insurance company or social welfare agency for you.
