How to Get Dental Care, for free
- 1). Visit a free dental clinic. Most cities in the U.S. have fixed as well as mobile dental clinics that provide free dental work for low income families in need. To find a local free dental clinic in your area, head to freemedicalcamps.com. This site lists dental community clinics by state and city.
- 2). Contact a dentistry school in your area and ask them if they need patients to practice on. Dental students often practice on real patients before they graduate. Safety always comes first, as all procedures are supervised by a licensed dentist. Dental schools in your area can be found by doing a simple search for "dental schools" followed by your city of residence.
- 3). Explain your situation to a dentist in your area. Let them know that you are in financial hardship and can not afford to pay them for their services but are truly suffering. Dentists often take on a few pro bono (free) cases each year.
