Meet Ms Funches and How She Got Her Smile Back

Ms. Funches was on the floor of her living room, begging her daughter to knock out her teeth. “They were hurting so bad! My mouth was on fire!” After years of gum disease, natural decay, and dental pain, she found herself miserable, losing weight, and unable to eat or sleep. She cried and begged her daughter for help. “Please, knock ‘em out!” 

Being a low-income senior citizen with no dental insurance, Ms. Funches assumed there were no options for her. That the expense of handling this, especially in an emergency, would be a crushing financial burden. 

Little did she know that with the help of the City of Detroit, MCDC introduced a program for Detroit residents to get free dentures through a grant. Hear how this grant helped Ms. Funches get her smile back!
