I am looking for free dental care I have no insurance and only have $400 a month income. Can anyone HELP I am in pain and can't find any help in Austin TX. Believe it or not I'm not poor enough to get State help. I don't live in a shelter, I live with friends, so ARCh can't help. Any Help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Hi sweetie...the link below is, I believe, exactly what you're looking for. They have free services, including dental, depending on income, and reduced fees for those who have income but can't pay full price. I believe you'd probably fall under the free category if you apply. Either way, reduced is a great way to go too, especially since yours would be quite a bit smaller payment for services.
I wish you well, and God's blessings!
Just scroll down, look at the City of Austin Dental clinic area, and call the number tomorrow (or today, it's still pretty early there!)

Keep in mind I know almost nothing about what I am about to suggest because I am only 14.
Hire a lawyer, convincing them that it will get them a lot of good PR so that they will take your case for free and either plead your case with the state and have them change the law so that ANYONE who does not own or rent a place to live in with their own money should get the same benefits from the state. OR you could just sue them and use the money to get enough money to pay for your own health care.
Or you could write a letter to your congressman about all of this!
Come to think of it, I guess that idea IS pretty good for a 14-year-old...

Find a dental school. I know in San Antonio if you go to The San Antonio College of Medical and Dental Assisants, they can help for free. Try looking around up there.
Also, try calling your bank to see if they have a cheap plan (like...$9 a month...that's what I have).

Contact your local AARP office, or Area Agency on Aging-they usually start at 55 but they might have some good resources for you.
