No Dental Insurance, My child has dental fears and I can not get any dental help.

Right now I do not have any dental insurance for myself or for my six year old daughter.  I work part time and do not get dental insurance.  Although I get some governmental help I do not get dental only medical care for my child.

That being said,  my daughter may have a cavity since she says one of her teeth hurts her on and off.  Knowing that I can not afford to take her to a general dentist I took her to a dental  clinic that said they offer free dental services to minors of low income families.

I was glad to find a place but my daughter was only with the dentist for less then a few minutes when they tell me that they can not help me since my daughter is scared of them and is kicking and screaming.   Well she is only six so what if she is scared I was so mad that a place that is suppose to help low income families kick us out.

I want to file a complaint on them for not helping us out.   They were very rude and did not give my daughter any time to adjust.  I was told I could try again when my daughter is able to behave.  What can I do now?  This has to be a joke.

    No I am sorry to say but I do not see it as a joke at all. It is sad that your daughter was scared and did not let them help her but they just do not have the time it takes if the child in question is kicking and screaming.

    Try to understand from their point of view they problem have ten people in the waiting room to get dental help. They can ill afford to spend to much time with anyone that will not let them do their work.

    I would talk things over with your daughter and get her to understand that behavior is not acceptable. Then try to go back after she has the understanding that she will not be kicking the dentist.

    I have to go to a dental clinic and they were very zoo out. No way do they have the time it would take to clam down a scared stressed out child. Many general dentist will not work on child that kick or scream I am not sure why you feel since it is a clinic that should be acceptable.

  3. Rosa Says:

    I can understand how you feel but I was not there to say the dentist office was in the wrong. If they did not spend a reasonable time in order to help your six year old then I would be very up set too.

    I am not sure who you can complain too about them. Since no work was done or even started all you can do is look for another dental clinic that may be able to spend more time with your daughter and her dental fears.

  4. Samula Says:

    Well I would be pissed off too. After all you went there needing help and they would not even spend the time needed to help you. Kids get scared of the dentist turning her out does not help her fear any.

    I would not go back to that stupid dental plan free or not. Sometimes you get what you paid for.

  5. Mary Says:

    Since your daughter is six I am sure it was not her first time seeing a dentist. Why not take her back to the dentist she saw last and find out if they would be willing to work out a payment plan with you.
