Where can i go in wisconsin to get free dental work?
I would guess the University hospitals. Usually the university hospitals have a very good staff and support the community with free or low cost medical aide. Unfortunately there usually a waiting period or some other circumstances that may interfere.

Reply:To one of the accredit Dental Colleges.. They always need people to practice on.
Reply:The previous answerers were right about going to a dental school.





I believe the only complete dental program in the state of Wisconsin is at Marquette University in Milwaukee.





If you need major work, the dental assistant programs may not me good enough, but you can still try some of the local community colleges. I believe the Madison Area Technical College (Downtown Campus) had a pre-dental or a dental hygienist program where you might be able to get some work done for cheap. The Milwaukee Area Technical college might have a similar program (not sure though).





If you can’t find a program near you, I would call the county health department to see if there is an assistance program in your area or you could try the State health/health


%26amp; human services department.





Good Luck.
Reply: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.





Call your local health department and ask about health centers that provide dental care for free or on a sliding scale.





Your 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."





Go to a dental school, if there is one near you, for reduced costs.





Check http://www.toothwoman.net to see if low-cost or free dental services are available near you.





Check http://bphc.hrsa.gov and choose "Find a Health Center" to see if there is a low-cost clinic near you.





Check http://www.nfdh.org/DDS.html to see if your state has a "Donated Dental Services" program. D.D.S. is designed to locate dentists who will give free care to patients who are financially compromised due to medical problems. This is a process that will take a couple of months to get your information and then arrange for someone to see you. Not all states have D.D.S. programs.





If worse comes to worse, check out http://www.prosper.com and see if you can find a funding source.
