dental help for homeless/poor in Missouri?!
Question:
Answers:
Does this person also have a Church that could help? Maybe they could apply for a one time medical assistance deal or something. Medicaid will pay for some things but not all things.
If you could place this person in some sort of government homeless shelter they should have a social worker there that maybe could help them out with their medical assistance.
If all else fails have this person sit in front of the social services office with a big sign stating that they are homeless, poor and in critical need of dental assistance.
Other Answers:
Check with the local health department. Many health departments in the U.S. now have dental clinics. Also, do they qualify for Medicaid? Medicaid will at least pay for exams, x-rays and extractions on adults age 18 & over.
