I need free dental work in Los Angeles

[Zara]

Good morning,
I am Esmeralda, Peer Navigator for Kaiser Health. I am currently assisting one of our members who resides in LA. He requires assistance with dental bills. He is disabled and living on a fixed income. Is he eligible to apply for assistance for the bills or other dental work? Do you know of any resources that can assist with paying his dental bills?

Hi,
Since you are homeless (living in your car), a free clinic in Los Angeles will definitely help you. They may use your MediCal benefit - maybe not. But having that insurance is bound to help you and not hinder. But instead of the $300 cost, just us a free clinic in LA County listed here. https://www.needhelppayingbills.com/htm ... geles.html

Hello,
I am currently unhoused, uninsured and living in a car in North HIlls, CA which is Los Angeles County I've had a lot of dental and health issues (including a heart attack) recently and I'm unable to work right now. Although I have MediCal, I have a dental issue that is not covered by insurance that requires out of pocket payment. I need a free dentist or clinic program in LA County to take care of it.
I have a mercury filling that is leaking and turning my tooth gray, it needs to be removed and replaced ASAP. The dentist quoted a price of $300 and I'm trying to find a church or agency that might be able to help me. If you could send resources I would appreciate it.
