Hi, I'm a semi recent college graduate with very low income, I am a dog walker for a living :) I am struggling with deferring huge loan payments, and I have a huge amount of credit card debt

I cannot afford to get my cavities filled, and my whole mouth is rotting and only getting worse.  It's been years since I could go to the dentist. I'm wondering if there are any dentists with a good reuptation out there willing to do the necessary procedures at a very low cost or for free.  I'm also curious if anyone knows about dental offices with financial assistance available, or that are privately funded.  Any financial contribution towards getting cavities filled would also work, I just need help soon!  The pain is getting bad, not to mention I'm losing friends over the...bad breath side effects of so many cavities. 

Thank you for any support you can offer me!  Even advice! :)

 in response to sliver...   i cann't help with money. but, my boyfriend knows how you feel. his parents never had dental or health insurance. the dentist says he was born with week teeth and roots. all of his teeth need to come out. his doesn't want to have no teeth in his mouth since he's a truck driver. but, he cann't afford health insurance because, he has alot of money in back child support he's trying to pay off. so don't feel too bad. some people have it alot worse than you.

I am with AmeriPlanUSA, which is a Health Discount Company.  It is for those who don't have insurance and it sound like you.  I think they can help you.  We have a network of doctors that you can choose from and they work very well with us.  I must stress to you that this Discount is NOT INSURANCE RATHER AN ALTERNATIVE TO INSURANCE

You may go to my website: everyonebenefits.com/LJ to find more information out. If you would like to talk to me personally you may reach me at 727-522-0416 to discuss this further.  I would be more than happy to help if I can
