I don't have the money to afford dental care right now. Could anyone recommend a dental clinic in Manhattan? I've heard that Bellevue will accept walk-ins.
I know I could get welfare, but would rather just go to a clinic.
AFAIK, there is no free dental care anywhere in NYC - and so I did a google search for free dental care in NYC and there are several clinics - part of the "Ryan" network that offer free dental.
Here's an example of one link on that site http://communitydentcare.columbia.edu/cf.html
Dental Services for All Ages
The Community DentCare Network relies on its partnerships and collaborations to ensure northern Manhattan’s low-income, underserved and uninsured residents have access to comprehensive, affordable and quality dental care. Our community based practices in Northern Manhattan offer a full range of oral health care services community. All clinics also provide medical care.
Should I look poor when I go to one of these free clinics? I used to go to one on Spring Street and the staff always gave me weird and unfriendly glances. I'm poor, but I don't seem poor. I'm pretty well educated (through self-study), and I'm clean cut and dress well.
My teeth are in awful condition. I've sworn off vaginas, so I'm mainly trying to maintain my teeth to get employment. People don't want to hire men with missing teeth.
NYU has become a total pain in the ass. It is good only if you are on Medicaid...then it is free. But you have to be destitute.
Extraction is called oral surgery...$240 cash upfront.
Fillings arre running over $100 these days.
And their work is crap.
Does anyone know anything about Columbia?
