They're living in a 10x7 room, so flying overseas isn't an option.
Obviously. I am talking long term. They can yank the teeth here pretty inexpensively. Over the long haul though, you don't want to leave large gaps in your teeth. The teeth will shift, bone loss will occur in the jaw, and the stress that are placed on any remaining teeth will ultimately lead to further tooth loss. The problem though is that here in the states implants are extremely expensive. When OP gets back on his feet and ultimately gets a job, dental tourism might be something that he may want to look into.
I have called Stonybrook but I am thinking that they will not help as my wife is an English Cit and we just do not have the funds for her to go back we have been trying to get back on our feet from sandy and then lost the apartment we did have as he got forclosed on it seems it just gets harder and harder then we lost all we had in storage could not pay it and had to move into a motel till funds ran out and we ended up homeless went to SSI said they could not help as I was not a drunk drug addic or had a little kid but if I was they would inable me to stay that way go figure, right now antibiotics would be a god send.
I do thank all who looked to help and I hope you all have a great New Yr

If she is severe pain, just go to the emergency room. Tooth infections can spread into the blood stream and cause coronary valve damage or even worse. This is something you really don't want to play around with. Emergency rooms usually don't perform anything dental related, but if the situation is that dire sometimes they have emergency dentist on staff that can perform an emergency extraction. At the very least, get her on an antibiotic. Wishing you the best.

how much was the cost of the whole mouth implant? i know its case by case with other factors involved but im trying to get a range in price. if you dont mind sharing a bit more detail and price that would be great.
My wife needs dental work very bad I am out of work and just can not afford to take her to a dentist she is in such pain, Does anyone know where we can get free Dental work done for her she needs a lot of work to be done and we just do not have the funds we are in Rocky Point we lost are savings and now live in a 10 by 7 room
Have you tried the dental clinic at St Charles hospital or at Stony Brook hospital?
There are also suffolk county health centers that provide some free (based on income) dental services, there's one in Coram on Middle country road.
Good luck!

Find a minimum wage P/T job for 2 months. Then you qualify to apply for the Medicaid Manage Care Providers. You and your wife will then have free health and dental.
The SBU student clinic is a great idea. But if the timing isn't right, its a long wait. You have to signup for a screening date. Then after that, wait months to be assigned to a student.
Stony Brook dental school does it for a significantly lower price. My mother went there when we lived near SBU.
