Help Paying Dental BIll for Seniors

My husband and I are looking for assistance to pay a massive dental bill. We are both 65, I'm disabled. He's on Social Security; I'm on disability. We live near Hilo, Hawaii. We had separate coverage, mine was insurance, his was discounts, but both provide little coverage. The dentist did not get pre-approval for the procedures & our co-pays are huge. Any advice?

Need Help on a Dental Bill

I am living on SSI disability just North of Pensacola, FL.  Medicaid is my insurance and it doesn't cover dental.  The only thing I can do is have an extraction at the health department, or go to the dental school at the college for a dental cleaning.  Does anyone know a way to get fillings done as well?  I live on less than $675 per month.  What do they expect people to do about dental?

My ex-husband has extremly bad teeth and has been laid off since December.  He has had bad teeth most of his life and hasn't been to a dentist.  Most of his pay when he is working goes to pay his child support.  Right now his face is swollen and he is in extrem pain.  I wish there was something I could do to help.  I have looked all over tring to find help for him but cant seem to find anything.

Need Help on a Dental Bill

My stepson had to have mouth surgery from an infection because if the infection spreaded to his head and brain he would have died. We don't have insurance so it was very hard to find someone to do the surgery. Finally found The Institute of Facial Surgery in Melbourne, Fl. and it was $1500.00 for the surgery and they wanted the money the day of surgery. My mom gave me $475.00 of it and the remaining balance my husband wrote a check even though we didn't have the money to cover it. But we had to so he can get the surgery and be okay. Now they want the money within 15 days or they are going to take criminal action for a non sufficient check. They will not do a payment plan either. Please help me!!!
