 in response to marilu...   Marilu, Universities with Dental Schools, ie: NYU, Stony Brook etc. have dental clinics that are very affordable. They often accept whatever your insurance pays. They do good work and students and graduate periodontists are overseen by a team of professors. You must also be a part of your treatment plan. Ask questions, (there is no such thing as a stupid question) and before you sign any consents for treatment, be sure you understand the treatment plan to your satisfaction. I wish you well and you are in my prayers. Miracles do happen. No situation is completely hopeless! Cat

I found a website that may be helpful to you. It offers free dental care. Perhaps you can find a provider close to where you live.

I have the same problem as everyone else here. I had Medicaid at one time and the dentist that worked on my teeth ruined them. I never even had a cavity until I was over 30 yrs old and this dentist started filling some of my upper teeth and wanted to fill a bunch more on my lower jaw. I was told that the fillings would match my tooth coloring but I ended up with my upper teeth full of silver. Since then i did not go back for the lower teeth but i started having serious problems with with the teeth he filled. i had to have a bridge put in an two root canals that my mother had to pay for. The bridge has already fallen out after 3 1/2 yrs, two more teeth in my top left side have broken off down to the gum and almost 2 more have broken off on my bottom right side. I now have a space between my two front teeth. I have no one to help me now. My husband is disabled and has been for many, many years. I've had to care for him and my 25 yr old adult son that has cerebral palsy. I have Hepatitis C, suffer from depression because I had to move my son into a group home, I don't like to be around other people, go to the store or even visit other family members. My daughter is the same way. She still lives at home at the age of 20 and doesn't even want to learn to drive a car. She had to be home schooled because she would get so anxious about going to school and being around so many children that she would have panic attacks. It seems to me that no one cares for one another any more. It all about the almighty dollar and the people I know that have money only spend it on themselves. I pray that everyone here that needs help, gets it. God bless.

Hi I am 35 years old and I am a single mother of Four beautiful children. I have this huge insecurity about myself. This insecurity has held me back for years. I have a huge gap in the front that is so big I can fit the tip of any of my fingers through. I have been made fun of my whole life and up to this day at 35 years old I still believe I am being made fun of. If anyone can tell me what to do I would really appreciate it. I do not have insurance because I watch my sisters children so I am considered to be self employed. Please help me get help. Thank You

 in response to Kat-Ryn...   I feel your pain. I am very poor, and not from my own making. I started having problems set off by one or two cavities at a time but I had no money or insurance to afford dental care until the teeth began to abscess and then I had to have them pulled one at a time. Because of being jobless and poor while my teeth were going to hell, and coming from generational poverty with no economic resources built into my life or middle class family to help me out, I found myself in a catch-22 after graduating from college as a non-traditional aged student at age 34 with a marketable degree, but having to face everybody with missing/visibly decayed teeth, I never could get a job. Not even a minimum wage job as a supermarket cashier where you have to face the public. People who have not come from deep poverty and had everything humanly possible that was bad happen to them before getting lucky and getting a good job have no clue. Getting put down for being poor, being a "loser" and accused of not trying hard enough when nobody's willing to hire you when you're a female with dental problems that no dentist is willing to treat for free so you CAN get a chance for a job and get out of poverty, while the capitalized interest on your deferred student loans piles up and being over 40, everything is just hopeless...and this is called "freedom?" Freedom from what and freedom for whom? Nobody cares about the poor in this country. Instead all we get is to suffer and do without and then get told how it's all our own fault.

I can sympathize with you because I myself am in the same boat. Going for years with NO health and dental insurance has cost me my health and my teeth. I am a 39 year old female, I don't drink, take drugs, or engage in any "risky" behavior. I have been diagnosed with severe anemia and vitamin deficiency. Also I'm facing an upcoming surgery to remove my thyroid gland because I was diagnosed with Graves disease Aug.'08. I started loosing my teeth about 2 yrs. ago. One cavity set off a chain reaction, I could not afford the dental bills until it was an emergency and they had to be pulled due to infection, and that was done one at a time. I don't smile anymore, I have very low self-esteem, I used to be a very pretty woman and now I'm just a shell of my former self. We are supposed to live in the richest countries in the world, with some of the most resources as far as medical and so forth but for most of us this is just a dream. I just wish to have teeth so I can live a normal life and see my kids through adulthood. Unfortunatly, I am trapped on a desperate "medical merry-go-round" that I have no control over, dentists require up front payment that I don't have, and I need implants, getting dentures is more like a temporary fix, I don't want to see my jaws disintegrate. But I'm not ungrateful, I would accept any help. I just want to have my health back and feel better about myself. Is a smile too much to ask for? For me it is.

You might be able to get free or low-cost dental care at a local dental college.  Click in the link in my profile to see how you can save as much as 80% on dental care with our discount plan.  Many of our providers will work out payment plans.  Let me know if you have any questions!  Best wishes, Rosie
