High Urgency Request
I am working with a low-income family who has a five year old with significant developmental delays. The five year old is in need of extensive dental treatment. Because of his special needs and the amount of work he needs, he will need to have anesthesia. We have referred the family to a number of dentists in the area and have tried to find a dentist that can offer the services at a discounted price. However, due to the nature of his disability, he requires a dentist with a special skill set to work with his sensory issues (tactile defensiveness, sensitivity to touch, etc). We were happy to find a dentist that is a good fit for the child and who has agreed to discount his fees from 6,009 to 3,000 dollars, making the total cost $3,000. The child is in extreme pain which has affected his ability to eat and participate in classroom activities. The family is trying to raise money to help with the cost. Any amount donated as soon as possible would be super helpful for this family. We are also open to any referrals to great dentists that may offer services to this child at a lower cost. Thanks in advance for considering this request.
