Where can i find dental schools who need patients to do dental work for free or little cost in N.H..?

I am not aware of a dental school in New Hampshire, but here are some other suggestions about finding low cost care.





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.

OK, you are brave! Go to your local community college, and they should have a dental class. Notice that I said CLASS! These are students working on you, with a licensed dentist in attendance. If they ask you if you have a sensitive mouth, do yourself a favor, and say YES! I had my teeth cleaned at a dental class, and my mouth hurt me for two weeks! Just trying to prepare you.
Reply:I don't know about schools but some clinics or Health Departments have dentists and charge based on income. Call around to Hospitals or Social Services and ask if they know of anyplace that can help you. good luck.
