- Look for "medical mission groups" in your community who are offering repair service for free or write to a TV show like Tyra or Ellen or charity institutions and tell them your dilemma maybe they can help you.
- I was in the same boat. I am assuming that you are in Canada...if not, then I do not know the answer, but in case you are in Canada....the Health Care System here pays for the removal of your teeth in a hospital setting where you are put under general anesthesia (put to sleep). I had all my teeth removed last Friday and it was done for free. However, getting dentures is up to you and is your responsibility. That is why when you undertake this operation you should have at least 1 dental benefits plan. 2 would be better if your spouse has it too.
- If your near a university, you could speak with the dental department of the university and ask what they can do for you. Most of the time it's free, because of your unique situation, it's alway's best to ask first. (Medical Department).
- Look for a dental school in your area where they are training dentists. They offer much lower prices. Otherwise get a job that has full benefits. I heard that all the employees at Starbucks have insurance. Otherwise, move to Canada. Everyone has coverage there.
