Where can I find affordable dental care in St Louis Mo without insurance?

Contact your local or state dental association and and see if there are any dentists who provide free or reduced cost care for low-income, disabled or senior patients.





Call your local health department and ask about health centers that provide dental care for free or on a sliding scale.





Your local United Way may also be aware of such a clinic. In some areas, you can reach them now by dialing 2-1-1 for "non-emergency information."





Go to a dental school, if there is one near you, for reduced costs.





Check http://www.toothwoman.net to see if low-cost or free dental services are available near you.





Check http://bphc.hrsa.gov and choose "Find a Health Center" to see if there is a low-cost clinic near you.





Check http://www.nfdh.org/DDS.html to see if your state has a "Donated Dental Services" program. D.D.S. is designed to locate dentists who will give free care to patients who are financially compromised due to medical problems. This is a process that will take a couple of months to get your information and then arrange for someone to see you. Not all states have D.D.S. programs.

Is there a dental school in your area? I have had friends who did not have dental insurance but needed dental care and they went to a dental college/school for treatment. I think that it can be a really good deal and all students are supervised by licensed practictioners, so it's safe, too.
Reply:Contact ya' local Health Dept., City/State Hospital...Hospitals usually have dental schools...In which they will do ya' work, either pro bono, or according to ya' income!!!

Reply:Check your local pages. There should be free dental clinics in your area although I'm not sure what criteria you need to meet in order to go to one. Also, you might want to see if any local colleges have dental schools. They will usually do basic dental work at a fraction of the cost, but be prepared to be there longer as it IS a learning environment.
Reply:Good luck.Don't even think about dental insurance.Dental insurance is a joke.It hardly even pays anything.
