Does anyone know of any good dentist who will do cosmetic dentistry Pro Bono?

I went to the dentist a couple of days ago and it seems that I'll need dental implants. My dental insurance with my job won't cover these procedures and I really don't have that kind of money. I'm only 29 and I'd like to have a beautiful smile for the rest of my life. Can anyone help?

You can check with your local dental society. Or, if there is a dental school nearby, you may be able to get work done at a reduced cost. It would be done by a trainee, in your situation perhaps by a post-graduate trainee who is specializing, under supervision by a more senior dentist.





If no dental school is available, some hospitals have dental residency programs. I doubt the service would be free, but you might be able to get it at a reduced cost.

Reply:Dental implants are not cosmetic work. That is considered restorative, since it actually restores your mouth to normal chewing function.





I personally haven't had much experience with dentists who would do implants pro bono. The implants and parts are very expensive for the dentists to buy, so they might make a deal with you instead of just doing it pro bono.





You could try a dental school, as they are training and could probably use the experience. Also you could volunteer to be a patient for a training center. My dentist goes to different continuing ed courses, and they always need patients to work on in order to train the dentists who are taking the course, how to do certain new procedures or the newest way to do older procedures.
