Hi my name is April and I am a recovering addict of 24 years. I have been clean for 3 years. I started getting my mouth worked on until my insurance stopped paying for the procedures. Does anyone know where in central California I can go for assistance? I'm ready to move on with my new life with a new look. Someone PLEASE help me

My boyfriend has two years in recovery and we recently were blessed with an amazing little girl. Everything is great, except Josh's teath are ruined from years of abuse. They are almost all broken off at the gum line. They all need to be pulled and he needs dentures this is far out of our price range, with a brand new baby and me being a full time student. Josh paints full time, but he just make enough to take care of us, his family. Not only are the teeth unattractive, but a source of poor esteem and I feel it might relect poorly on our daughter. In a addition I feel there is a health risk here, with the broken off teeth becoming infected to jus the general concern that he can not chew his food properly. I need him to be around as long as possible. Every little gril deserves a daddy.

I am a recovered methamphetamine user. My teeth were bad before I used meth but since then they have started cracking, breaking and falling out. I have nightmares about all my teeth falling out when I try to brush them. I don't smile or laugh unless I'm around true friends and even than I feel self conscience. My face is swollen today as I edit this page because I have an infection down in the nerves of my tooth.   I need to find a dentist/clinic in TX (I live near Austin) who will do free or discounted services. I need all my teeth(whats left of them) removed and replaced with dentures. I have done internet research to try to find a dentist that does pro bono but cannot seem to find one. Donated services (TXDA) will only help you is you are over 65 or disabled. I can't get Medicaid. I have a very caring friend who has donated $500 dollars to my "dental fund" but thats not enough to even have all them extracted. I need 8 complex extractions(no tooth left above gumline , tooth is rotted below gumline, needs to be cut out) which are $110 per tooth, and 16 simple extractions which are $85 per tooth.(These are the cheapest rates I have found) I have found a place where I can get dentures for $375.
