Is there free dental care anywhere?

Free lunch: There' son such thing as a free lunch. If you're not paying for the treatment, someone else is. Check with your local social service agency or hospital er to see if there is low cost or (if you qualify) no cost care providers in your area.

Tes: Usually in a city or county, some charity organization will receive the fund to provide free dental work for people do not have dental insurance, especially uninsured children. Please contact your social office or local medical or dental school for more info.

Public Health Clinic: All Public Health Clinics offer dental care at highly discounted, or free, costs. The wait is usually long and the care is usually a bit less than in private practice dental offices, but it will do in a financial pinch. Once done, and when you can afford it, I would have a Dentist in private practice (practice owned by the Dentist) review the work; as you want it done right!

Internet Search: Search under the terms free dental care and you should come up with a few leads. Some hospitals and dental schools offer discounted fees to the eligible. Don't expect the work to proceed quickly and don't expect complex procedures. You'll need to be seen in a private practice for that.
