State Dental Society: In nh, we have several low cost care clinics. Also, you may apply for 'pro bono' care through donated dental services, or dds. Care thru this method is usually free to you. If needed, consider going to a denturist. In some states they may provide you an interim partial denture that can 'get you through' until times are better. Remember: prevention is cheap-treatment is costly-limit sugary drinks.

You NEED a dentist: Contact your nearest dental school. They may offer free treatment through community free clinics, or very low cost treatment at the school clinic. The lowest cost replacement would be a removable partial denture.

Without a dentist?: Perhaps there is a dental school in the area that can provide care for much lower fees. Dental care without a dentist seems quite inexpensive in the short run but may be more expensive in the long run. I understand your question and your circumstance. I truly think a dental school is best.
