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.\n\nCall your local health department and ask about health centers that provide dental care for free or on a sliding scale.\n\nYour 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."\n\nGo to a dental school, if there is one near you, for reduced costs.\n\nCheck http://www.toothwoman.net to see if low-cost or free dental services are available near you.\n\nCheck http://bphc.hrsa.gov and choose "Find a Health Center" to see if there is a low-cost clinic near you.\n\nCheck http://www.nfdh.org/DDS.html to see if your state has a "Donated Dental Services" program.

My mother had the same problem because she was on SS. Look in the phone book and surrounding areas and call each and every dentist. Ask them if they accept payment plans. Also, call your nearest Department of human services and ask them if they refer you to someone. Have you thought of traveling. In Austin, Texas you can get them through a program. I will give you the link below. Also if you go farther south, you can find them way cheap, like $500.00. Towards Mexico. Good Luck!

I'm guessing no, but I'd check with your local social services office.  Minnesota medical assistance covers dental work, I'm sure.  I don't think they accept donations though.

You may want to try a local university or college in your area.  Many times they have dental students who do a lot of work and it is generaly a good thing because the instructors are on hand as well.  Sometimes you can get quality care.\nGood Luck Health Care Does Break Your Bank

There are no such financial aids to my knowledge.  However, see if there is a dental school in your area.  You can get all the services for a fraction of the cost.  The work is done by students near the end of their training and they are supervised the entire time.  Might be an affordable option for you.\n\nA family with money issues that I knew in Michigan had all their dental work done at a dental school and were very pleased with them.

The odds of finding a dentist to do free work is slim to none... unless of course you are married to a dentist or are another close friend or family member. Check with your nearest dental school as the students always need patients to work on and the fees are relatively low. Also, you can check with your local health department... many health departments in the U.S. now have dental clinics. Good luck to you.

look in the phone book under dentists, for a dental referral service. tell them your situation, and they will hook you up w/ a list of dentists...good luck with this.  also, check to see if there is a school of dentistry in your area...they will be helpful too, as they need patients to work on. (supervised by a dentist of course) ;o]

If you have no insurance and are low on money then I suggest you contact the dental school nearest you.  The students always need patients to work on... they do good work and they are well supervised.  Another option is to contact your local health department.  Many health departments in the U.S. now have dental clinics.
