Like many of my friends I am a full time low income student.  With the cost of school I have very little extra money after paying all my bills.  I am lucky that I have some medical benefits, but I do not have anything for my dental care.  I would like to go to see a dentist for at least a checkup and teeth cleaning since it been a while since I last had that done.  Are there any low income dental insurance plans for students?

Affordable Dental Health Care is needed in California. I am 25 and yes I do work a full time job in fact I work overtime most week of 35-40 hours. But my job still does not offer dental benefits. Even though I have a job I really only make enough to live and pay my bills not much more then that.  I am starting to have some dental  issues that need to be address but I worry that I can not afford dental care.

Since I do work so many hours I can not get help when it comes to affordable dental care. My teeth are not terrible but they do need dental care I can not afford to have done.  What low cost dental care plans do you have to offer that can help me?
