<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>If you have a Dental school in your area, I would try them. Here in San Antonio we have one and the work done is free. There are also programs where Dentists will go to a function and do free work. My wife is a Dental Asst. and her boss does this.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I think that you should contact the VA. If I read your post correctly you are 10% disabled according the the VA. If you are collecting 100% social security disability, then perhaps there is something that the VA can do for you. There are a lot of factors in a VA disability rating besides medical related stuff. Inability to work is a huge one.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I&#39;ve never done it but when I retired, I was told that you could get dental care on base but it was a standby status. From what I understood, if you want to go there and wait for a no-show or when a dentist has a free moment, they would look at you...depending on what the problem is. If you live near a military base, it doesn&#39;t cost anything to give them a call and see if they do this. For what it&#39;s worth, I do have dental insurance (Federal) and they don&#39;t really seem to pay that much. I&#39;m always having to pay a good amount for any dental care.<br /><br />Depending on what your problem is, I&#39;d call around to several dental offices and check their costs. Doing this has saved me a little money over time.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>In our area the county health department has a program for dental and you are charged in accordance to policy on income. You might be surprised what they will do for you even with an average income. Look into your county health department/ clinics.
