Oral surgeons - anyone able to help? 2 years ago, I lost all my bottom teeth and most of my top teeth. I was supposed to be fitted with dentures but due to infections...

Have you tried the dental schools in the area, like [Tufts](https://dental.tufts.edu/patient-care)? They usually provide treatment at a reduced rate.

Harvard has a dentistry school, too. I’d imagine they’d also have to have a clinic because the students need opportunities to learn. Try there, too. If you’re in CT, also call Yale. And I don’t know if UCONN has a dental school or not...

Have you contacted the university dental schools around you? If you are on disability I imagine you’re also in Medicaid, and they probably accept it along with any other dental insurance you may have. The prices are cheaper, and in return training dentists do some of the work under close professor supervision.

An important thing to consider is the time commitment. A dental school is going to want assurances that you will be able to reliably show up for all your appointments. I have gone through something like this and it involved x-rays/evaluation, review of treatment plans/options, any prep work, one or more surgeries, a healing period with checks for infection/progress, and whatever process is needed for crowns/plates/dentures.

There are multiple health credit cards, not just Care credit, maybe look into those? I remember making out two separate cards when I got my implants

Shannon C. replied:
I work at https://www.facebook.com/147677653327Dr. Kasperowski Family Dentistry. We take children of all ages, and though we may book your initial appt. a few months out, schedules change often, and we would be happy to call you in when Someone reschedules. Also, if there is an issue with a tooth, my office is almost always able to get you a emergency appt within a few days. Even if your cleaning appt isnt until later in the year. Hope that helps.:)

Dr Aaron Fox on Main Street or Dr. Archambault in W. Spfld. ( kids had traumatic time and loved when they were transferred to Dr. Fox... have been going to him for years! Dr. Archambault is very good and treats w/o pain... it is his goal to truly make it as painless as possible & doesn't do unnecessary work!!!
Any of my friends on here with kids know of a good kids dentist? That isnt kool smiles or small smiles.

Got a check from the dentist that did my wisdom teeth because my dental insurance paid a bigger portion of procedure than originally quoted ----- win!! =)
