Her dental problems are making her MS worse.

There are two different financing plans that are available as well. I have worked front office as well as back in a Dental clinic, and have personally worked with both companies. They are specifically designed to help with dental financing. I know this is a difficult time and the cost of it makes it that much harder to deal with, but the people there are genuinely there to help. I have worked with Capitol Once on many many cases similar to this. There are also grants available through the MS foundations that may be able to help as well, but I believe these are localized so you may have to get in touch with your local resources. Good luck with this hun, I pray for the best. I've seen patients come through with MS and it is not an easy thing to deal with at all. The patients have a very difficult time dealing with everything all at once.
Reply:Check with a dental school. Also check with dentists in your area maybe they could give a price break and put you on a payment plan? Doesn't hurt to ask.


Check with the Multiple Sclerosis Society. Maybe there is help there.
Reply:I don't know what area you are in but most big cities have a dental school that will do the work for basically nothing or based on her income. My daughter is low income and had a lot of work done at the University of Detroit dental school. They did excellent work. It was a long drive but well worth it. Good Luck.

Reply:Write to the ADA and ask who has been granted funds in your area. If your daughter qualifies then you can go to the local Dentist who accepts the grant.





Also check with the MS Foundation, they might also be able to direct you.

Reply:What is the specific dental treatment she requires. You should get a copy of the dental treatment which should be listed in sequence (from immediate, emergency work which stabilizes the mouth), to more intermediate and long term care. In some states, dental care for child and adults is available through Medicaid, a federal-state program designed to provide medical assistance for persons with low household income. Information about this program can be obtained from your state or county department of public welfare. You should contact them to see, presenting the treatment plan to see if you qualify. While state funded programs has l;imitations on the type of dental work that is performed, the important thing is to stabilize what is already going on so that further damage is prevented. If you do not qualify for this type of aid, I would suggest using the services of a dental school and work slowly with them to first 1)stabilize the mouth - ask for a payment plan for this section only. Then see if you can get some grants or participate in research programs related to your childs need.

Joining a dental plan is also a great idea. You pay for a significantly discounted dental fee with a dentist who has contracted with the plan to provide care to you. I personally use the services of Dentalplan.com and with a promotional coupon code (vote25), saved an additional 25% off the $119.00 cost. The rates are too good to be true. You can even review the fees you would pay and the dentists who are in your area before you join the plan. You can learn more here: http://www.dentalplans.com/afftracker.as...
