I used to work in Remote Area Medical dental clinics as a nurse. Any dental school near you is great to help. Also, if you have a RAM clinic coming up near you, look on their website www.ramusa.org and see if there's one. You can get fillings and extractions done for free. Dental students (under the watchful eyes of their instructors) and local dentists volunteer their time for this. More complicated stuff and sedation, no, but you can get numbed. It's great!
