Well, yes, but the patient may have to travel a little bit. And this person needs a dental plan. They should have had one years ago. You won't get any "deals" just showing up saying you need or want service. I can't do a commercial here, but contact me and I'll name names and tell you the steps that need to be taken. No I'm not joking.

I would recommend calling several different offices and asking how much extractions cost, and see if anyone is a lot cheaper. You never know. You could also check around and see if there are any community dental clinics that offer treatment on a sliding fee schedule, dependent on income.
I truly doubt you will find any dentist that will extract all teeth at a set price, they would have to see the xrays and decide if particular teeth would need simple or surgical extractions.
Maybe you should look into Care Credit, it is a loan/credit card for medical/dental/vet services. That way you could pay over time. Or get a few teeth extracted at a time.
I wish you luck on finding something to help!

Try getting different opinions from different dentists. when i had my teeth pulled, my oral surgeon gave me a discount since i was having more teeth than you pulled.
