The common form of dental care here demands that if I cannot take care of my teeth (or don't have a schedule that includes cleanings, usually once per QUARTER) is just pulling. They'll pay for fillings, but not for crowns, meaning it WILL just get worse. This man is doing the work the Lord won't.

Because the richest individuals in history don't want good things for others.

It the same as the hospitals and medical specialists. United Healthcare has become the 3rd wealthiest company in the US. Their CEO received a total compensation of approximately $20.2 million plus 60 million in option awards. Guess they like money too. 🙄

(1) because they can and they like money, and (2) dentists why do you talk like a crazy person instead of understanding people like money

can we get an orphan crusher label going

We live in a shithole country.

What a horrifying story of life long poor health care

I will never understand why the only part of your skeleton you can touch has separate insurance and are considered optional

This isn't cool, it's fucking embarrassing that we need this when we should just have healthcare. Our country is pathetic.

Presidential Medal of Freedom right here, folks!

Oh, cool. A story about how the supposedly richest nation on earth can’t pay for the bare necessities of its citizens. Funny how we celebrate imaginary numbers on spreadsheets but not the quality of life of our fellow citizens.

This isnt a feel good story, this is a view into our awful dystopia where teeth are treated as luxury bones.

This is getting dumb and controversial like that. Not all stories have happy endings and perfections.

it's teeth, folks. connected to your feed hole. you deserve to keep them for as long as possible, as healthy as possible, at no cost. what are we doing here anymore.

All of the US's feel good stories are a horror story indictment of a cruel/exploitative system. Good part individuals taking initiative for their community bad part they shouldn't have to.

This was covered on 60 minutes, because Americans have to rely on charity popup clinics instead of a functioning healthcare system so that billionaires can get tax breaks.

"dignity" as if dentures are just for looks. Dental care is necessary healthcare. Infections can turn fatal, excruciating pain, even just missing teeth means issues eating and can cause breathing issues at night. Pretending dental care is JUST dignity and not a absolute necessity is shameful

Imagine living in a country where we didn't have to rely on the charity of others to have good things for our most vulnerable

Seems like something a 250 year old country could do... If it wasn't run by vile criminal assholes.

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times…

FFS. THIS IS NOT A FEEL GOOD STORY. We can and should have comprehensive, affordable health care.

Brilliant. The new generation will be kinder to the old & vulnerable. Fingers crossed it stays that way.
