LDS DENTAL PARTNERSHIPS
For our LDS members, we suggest that the first place to begin to get dental help is with either of the two following organizations with whom we have partnerships:
Gary Burnstein Community Health Clinic
Gary Burnstein clinic provides free medical care and dental care to low income, uninsured individuals. (at or below 250% of the federal poverty level) You must go through an application process in order to qualify. There is no charge for their services. 45580 Woodward Ave Pontiac, MI 48341 (248) 309-3752 You can call this clinic yourself and make an appointment.
HERE IS THE 2017 Federal Poverty Level Chart so you can see if you qualify:
St. Vincent de Paul's Dental Clinic
3000 Gratiot Ave. (near MacDougall)
Detroit, MI 48207
313-393-2930
M-F 9:00-5:00
$20 registration fee ( if they can pay it) and a proof of income. Exam, radiographs, extractions, oral surgery and fillings. There is a $10 charge for dental hygiene services.
Dentures are charged as the lab fee. (Typically $125-$175) Some people may qualify for denture assistance. We ask the patient to pay something—if possible. The cost of the denture depends on what the patient needs.
LDS Bishops can access this clinic by sending an email to the PSP Resource Directors with the person's name and contact information. That will provide a quicker time frame for an appointment.

ORTHODONTIC FINANCIAL AID
Smiles Change Lives - ORTHODONTIC FINANCIAL AID Smiles Change Lives (SCL) promotes increased self-esteem and improved oral health for children from low-income families in need of orthodontic treatment. Our goal is to help families, who cannot afford the full cost of braces, secure treatment for their children by connecting them with orthodontic providers willing to donate their services to deserving patients. 1-888-900-3554
The family pays a $30 application fee and then a total of $600 for the orthodontic work for each child. To see if qualify you can look at a table on this web page: http://www.smileschangelives.org/financial/. You first find your "taxable income" on line 43 of your last year's 1040. Then you look at the chart to see if for your family size, you are below the dollar amount listed. If you are at or below that number you qualify and you send in an application. The application is also on their webpage.
