Is he eligible to get Medicaid? That would open up some options for him



I'm not even sure how Medicaid eligibility works, but i see they have an office in BR. I will refer him there

Medicaid can be a kind of lengthy process to get enrolled, and I'm pretty sure that you have to be worth close to literally nothing to qualify. It's something to look into, but I imagine that it might not be the best option.

One of my exes is a dentist. She would volunteer at a free clinic on the weekends where she would do completely free dental work for the poor/homeless. There has to be some in Louisiana. And sometimes dentists will just do work pro bono if you contact them

I don't think there is any Medicaid assisted dental care for those over 18.
