Hello,

I am a FT college student who also works FT that doesn't have a lot of money. I don't have medical or dental, but am in need of dental work (cavities, root canal, etc.) and even if I could afford the insurance plans out there, they don't cover much if anything.

I have searched the internet over and over but can't find anything that leads me to a phone number for low income dental care for people like me. I keep finding stuff that states that the programs exist here, but no names or contact information.

Donated Dental Services is alive and well in Washington. Also, University of Washington School of Dentistry performs services at a reduced rate.

Call a few dentists from the Yellow Pages. Most of them have a list of low-cost or sliding scale clinics. I know I do, and I'm glad to take the time out of my busy day to give someone in your position a phone number or two.

Contact your local or state dental association and and see if there are any dentists who provide free or reduced cost care for low-income, disabled or senior patients.

Call your local health department and ask about health centers that provide dental care for free or on a sliding scale.

Go to a dental school, if there is one near you, for reduced costs.

Check http://www.toothwoman.net to see if low-cost or free dental services are available near you.

Check http://bphc.hrsa.gov and choose "Find a Health Center" to see if there is a low-cost clinic near you.

Check http://www.nfdh.org/DDS.html to see if your state has a "Donated Dental Services" program. D.D.S. is designed to locate dentists who will give free care to patients who are financially compromised due to medical problems. Not all states have D.D.S. programs.

try a dental school! Most of the community colleges should know of some.
