My good friends teeth are rotting out of her head! She has no insurance, and very little resources. All dentists in our area want tons of money up front. There is no saving these teeth, she needs them all pulled and given a set of false teeth. I am worried because she keeps getting these horrible infections which can abscess and kill her! She is a wonderful person who is raising two children on her own and somehow doesn't qualify for ANY kind of aid! I wish I could pay for this, but that's not an option either. I was just wondering if anyone out there had some ideas of where to turn for help?

There are dentists who accept discount plans (NOT insurance)! You might want to check out this site:
http://www.mybenefitsplus.com/aww
I don't know where you live, so you might want to locate a participating provider at this website before you consider it. You can even call the dentists you want on the list to confirm they accept the plan.
Membership in the plan is about $12 a month for an individual and $20 a month for a household. There is also a $20 reg. fee upon signup. Membership entitles your friend to discounts up to 80% and they vary depending on the type of work she needs done. A sample fee schedule should be at the site.
Good luck!

I would try going to a dental clinic. Not sure what state you may live in, but most colleges with dental schools have clinics where you can have your work done at a much much much cheaper fee. There might be a waiting list - but its worth to give it a shot! Also some hospitals have dental clinics with dental residents that preform all dental work you would get done in a regular office.

The pink situation (if this is what i think of that's) only disengages the area related to the door from the force mechanism (belt, chain or screw). you're able to desire to start beginning off or dlosing the storage door manually then pass it back to this is unique place which ought to re-work together the seize. If this is previous, it would desire to not pass the seize freely and evaluate to drag on the pink situation some situations to get it shifting freely previously shifting the storage door removed from this is present day place however to the unique place. If all else fails, only tell the mothers and dads you have been drawn to how the storage door works and go away out the area approximately attempting to fasten your brother out.

See if there is a Dental School in your area. Here we have one and they do services for low-income individuals.
