Do you get unemployment, and do you qualify for other aid? If so, find out who the participating dentists are in your area. If not, where is the nearest dental school? They take patients for the students to practice on, and usually charge less than full price. With most, you can set up a payment plan. Good luck, and smile when you feel like it. Hockey players are proud of their missing teeth.
You could ask a dentist to make you a flipper which you can use until you have enough money to do a permanent fix. The dentist might have a little compassion on you and charge you less, but the minimum our lab charges for one of those is about $140.
well if you are unemployed you should be on welfare benefits which means you dont have to pay for a dentist are you in the uk or america?
I am so sorry you are going through this. I can imagine it is quite scary. Have you checked dental colleges in your area? Perhaps they can offer you free or low cost options.
