I badly need a dental crown. Ontario Disability Support Programme does not cover this.??


Question: They will cover for the root canal, but not the crown. I was quoted at $900.00, which i can not afford. Does anyone know of a free dental clinic in Toronto that does this work. I know that the U of T is very booked up, and i am not sure if they do this work for free. Time is of the essence as i dont want to get an infection in the mean time. My tooth is fractured and the remaining mercury from the filling is sticking out.
