In 200 I had a bad tooth. I went to the family clinic, had it pulled. he broke the root. He routed it and then, accidently punture into the nasal cavity, only, he grazed off the ocular bone near my eye and caused me a non stop problem with it. No one believes me either and for 7 years the family medical center refused my records to doctors. 22 trips to eye doctors and surgeons and they all refer me back to a nasal sugeo that wants to route my nasal canal. I wish I could sue, but no one will touch mny case. I then was fropped from medical from the state when I became MORE disabled. I make less than 600$ a month it seems anymore. I cant get insureance through state because my alotted coverage time EXPIRED I am now barly able to walk, but still manage to do some handy jobs that take 3-4 hrs*with strain( and some smaller jobs. Reason? I was injured at home)electrocution) and my leg and right arm suffered damage, as did my heart. again, no one believes me after 100 tests. It feels like fibromialgia in ONE LEg, but pulsates like that electricity did when it hits. I had to turn down finacial aid at college recently because my doc saus I can not sit that long. I can not barely stand anymore, and can't even get food stamps because i am self employed and don't have a liscense.Therefore, my records are not legit. It is Bulloney. I tried getting mediacl insurance bu cant afford a co pay, as I am rarely working at all anymore. My wife and I are in dire straights and its getting to be a deep ditch. I really hope God is coming soon, to end all the flipping greed on this planet that tends to single out the weakest souls here, those in suffering and in pain. I am ruined basically and don't know how I have made it so far. By the way. That tooth that was pulled: It infected my face(the injury) spread to all my gums and I had to come up with 2,900 to pull the rest(was no way to save from lifethreatening infection). My head looked like a basketball. Someday, I know God will issue judgement on these medical preditors, but if only I could weild the sword for ten minutes when it is all over..(taken lightly as a scenario that only could happen if God granted it at the end of the world).... Yes, It makes me mad. I should hit prison around 2017, as theres no way by then I can afford insurance as mandated by obama. I will be a citizen on the list to IGNORE when an emergrncy arises.

I do hope you find a way to pay for it. I don't have dental insurance anymore. I had a bunch of work done and they cancelled me. That's the part I don't understand. I had health insurance through the same company for 14 years and one day I get this letter that they were cancelling me......I never had a claim. I was put in a group of people that were turning 50 so they just dumped all of us. I went to the Governer of our state and everyone I could.....I said if I stole as much money from them as they did from me I would be in jail for grand theft! They seriously need to reconstruct what insurance companies do. I think that health care has become nothing but big business!

Hello my friend imgrandma12 Ji, I am 67 yrs old lady and made my full denture 10 yrs back, but never used as I could never insert them. So it is not necvessary that denture must be made, may be that I am looking more old, but if I was using danture I might be looking 5 yrs younger. It does not matter for me, as I am not slated for any beuty competition. Think it over to save your hard earned money on making denture. It is a waste. May God bless You and have a great

I am in desperate need of dental work done but I do not have coverage or a lot of money. I put my children's needs above my own so I will not be going to the dentist anytime soon... Unfortunately. They have a free clinic here but they don't do any major work there, its all students so they do minor things like cleanings and x rays. Nothing I need done. I need major work done so they cannot help me... Then there is one other place who bases it on your income but you still have to pay up front its just a little less than what others pay. I still don't even have that much money! So basically I will not be getting my teeth fixed until we win the lottery...(Not likely).
