i am 35 an need a new partial denture (or bridge?) because when i moved late last year my baby lost my denture. i have had to be without them for several months now. i am embarrassed to talk to anyone. ive called medicaid to see about getting another partial denture but they refuse sayin that i would have to have a full denture AND a partial before they paid for it. i dont want a full denture. i just need another partial denture or a bridge for the 5 front upper teeth that are missing. i cant get a job because of my missing teeth an nobody seems to care (especially medicaid). is there anyone that can help me please?

Nancy I just sent an email to the address you have listed above and got a message back saying that the message was undelivered due to no mailbox by that name. I also tried calling the number you have listed and got a message saying not taking calls. I realize the info above is quite old and I need some help with getting dentures. I have no job, no income of any kind and have only enough money left to pay my house note and car note one more month. I have been told by a health center dentist that I need a full mouth extraction and full set of dentures due to bone loss. I'm having a hard time dealing with this as I also have a problem with depression which I am taking medication for. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

i got a new set of dentures in march last year,the are broken,worn down to nothing.because the are over a year old,they say there is nothing they can do,my old set came from the same outfit,just different location.,i am on a fixed income,i don't have $400.00 again to spend,it will take me another year to get the money.

 in response to PWG...   AMEN!

 in response to starving mom...   Pls check out recent post; best to try and keep your senses and dont give up. YOUR Local Congressperson's aides "online", will respond. The listed Medicaid/Medicare dentists, likely deny coverage, and so does the local Medicaid Health Dept Dental Office. Their own wording claims: "Anyone over the age of 21 with dental emergency can likely result w teeth extracted and full or partial dentures" (program has temporarily ceased)!

DONT GIVE UP! Write to your politicians to get after ADA, rather than supporting luxurious offices while.......!
