I need about $10,000 worth of work done (w/ins.) and no way of being able to come up with that kind of money in any decent amount of time so if ANYONE has ANY ideas as to how I could possibly get the work that I need done before it's too late, please let me know. There are very few lengths I would not go to to get this work done. Thank You Everyone!!!!!

The only suggestion I have if you need that much work done for free is try to find dentistry schools who use live people for their students to "practice" on.

I have never heard of a Pro-Bono dentist so am not sure where to direct you. There are free clinics out there and dental schools to look into.
If these don't pan out then consider getting a discount dental card. It will cost $11.95 a month. Just make sure to check that there are participating providers in your area before applying.

I'm in California..but there are community colleges that have juniors and seniors do dental work under the supervision of actual dentist while they are teaching them. It might be the smarter way for you to go. You can go into a dentist and ask if they can suggest such a school or college for you to go to. Its not 100% free but the cost are so minimal that I think it would be a better way for you to go.

I know that Rene Piedra, DDS in Coral Gables has a free clinic, but I'm not sure if it includes adults. Maybe you can set up a payment plan?

You're lucky. I just need the sedation because my life sucks.
