How to Get Free Dental Implants in Ohio

1. Check with your dental insurer, if you have one, to see if dental implants are included in your complete coverage. Then find a dentist's office in your area that accepts your dental insurance.
2. Ask your dentist about pro bono services for cases of financial hardship. Be prepared to provide documentation, like proof of income, caseworker contact information, or letters of reference from clergy or employers. Sometimes, private practices will extend pro bono services on a case-by-case basis.
3. Find a free dental clinic in your area and ask if their services include dental implants. Free dental clinics are available across Ohio, but occasionally they have a waiting list, so inquire as early as possible. Other clinics provide emergency dental services only. The Ohio Dental Association links patients with financial hardships with reduced-fee or free dental services.
4. Research dentists who offer pro bono dental work days, like Afinia Dental's Pro Bono Day in West Chester, Ohio. Some dentist's offices will feature annual, or semi-annual events, to provide dental care for low-income residents.
