About 4 years ago I was in an abusive relationship that at the end I was in the hospital in intensive care, beaten with a crowbar,most of my back teeth I had swallowed during the attack the rest had been broken off,cracked or chipped. I have since then been to the dentist one time when I had insurance, a job,and a family member that would help me out during the recovery. Right now I am unemployed,in a town that I truely don't have anyone that I can rely on to truely help if needed,my living situation is I now rent a room in a home that has no real privacy,and my transportation is currently bus,bike,or walk and I can't do that after oral surgery.Medical coverage in this state that I live does not cover "cosmetic" procedures and dentures,or bridges,caps,etc. are considered cosmetic.They will pay to pull all your teeth but they will not help get you new ones!! I like to eat.So..What can I do to get my teeth fixed and looking decent so that I can someday again smile.
How can I get "pro bono" dental work or denturesI am single woman unemployed very low income %26amp; state won'thelp
Go to your local state teaching hospital ask for the dental school and you can have better teeth than the rich and famous!
Reply:I just came across your question. What state are you in? If it is Texas I may be able to help you. Report It
Reply:There maybe a battered womens program where they will help you to get your life back in order. ask around, try to find a lab that makes dentures this way you don't have to pay a dentists fee,you can just pay for the dentures themselves,about 3 to 4 hundred dollars.In NJ call Dr. Becker up north somewhere I for got the town,he's good and cheep.You can SMILE you've been through alot and your a stronge women.The best of luck to you!Just another thought put something on EBay telling your story,and ask for help I've heard of people doing thing like that.Put your frown up for sale to purchase a smile:)Good luck!!!!!!!!
