If your priority is keeping the cost down as an uninsured adult, I’d start with Manos De Cristo.

• Manos de Cristo Dental Center — 4911 Harmon Ave. It specifically serves low-income adults without private dental insurance, and its dental services are priced at about 30% of market value. It offers exams/X-rays, cleanings, fillings, crowns, extractions, periodontal care, and emergency dental care. Low Income Dental Trinitycenter
• Dr. Sileshi Assemu — 1210 W Braker Ln. CommUnityCare is an FQHC with a sliding-fee scale, and uninsured patients can qualify based on income. Black Health LowCostClinics.org
• CommUnityCare: South Austin Health Center — 2529 S 1st St. Another sliding-scale community-health option if you're in South Austin. Black Health
• If you don't qualify for income-based discounts, a private office with a cash plan may make more sense. Craft of Dentistry offers an uninsured adult plan for $39/month, including two exams, two cleanings, routine X-rays and an emergency exam, plus 20% off treatment. Craft of Dentistry

My practical recommendation: call Manos de Cristo first and ask for the uninsured-adult eligibility screening and earliest new-patient appointment. If you don't meet their income requirements or the wait is too long, try CommUnityCare.

If you tell me your Austin ZIP code and roughly how much you can spend for the first visit (e.g. under $50, $100, $150), I can narrow this to the most convenient options and compare their current fees.

If you’re uninsured and pregnant, I’d start with CommUnityCare/Central Health rather than a typical private dentist, because they specifically offer dental care for uninsured Travis County residents through MAP/MAP Basic and sliding-fee arrangements. Central Health Central Health

Near Mueller

• CommUnityCare: Chalmers Courts Health Center — 314 Chicon St. This is an East Austin community health center with general dentistry and financial-assistance/sliding-fee options. It’s one of the more practical low-cost options from Mueller.
• River Rock Dental Mueller — 1801 E. 51st St., Suite 390. People's Community Clinic lists this office among dental providers accepting Medicaid/CHIP, so it may be worth calling to ask specifically about uninsured/self-pay pregnancy appointments. Austin Pcc
• Dr. Irina Malakhova, DDS / CommUnityCare Southeast — 2901 Montopolis Dr. This CommUnityCare location has dental services and is specifically designed to serve uninsured/underinsured Travis County residents. Central Health

The money-saving option I'd check first

If you live in Travis County, MAP/MAP Basic can provide access to dental care even though it isn't conventional health insurance. Eligibility is based partly on household income; Central Health says uninsured Travis County residents are encouraged to apply regardless of immigration status. Central Health

You can call 512-978-8130, option 1 for eligibility help. Central Health's dental network includes CommUnityCare, People's Community Clinic, Lone Star Circle of Care and others. Central Health

For pregnancy specifically, routine dental care—including cleanings, exams, necessary X-rays and treatment of dental infections—is generally considered compatible with pregnancy. When you call, tell them you're pregnant, how many weeks you are, that you're uninsured, and that you need prenatal-safe dental care. They can tell you what treatment and payment options they offer.

If you want, I can also narrow this down to the 3 cheapest options within a few miles of Mueller and give you their phone numbers, hours, and what to ask when you call.

If you’re in the Mueller/East Austin area and uninsured, I’d start with a community dental clinic rather than a conventional private practice. I found a few options that specifically serve uninsured/underinsured patients.

Places to call

• Huang Philip P MD — 15 Waller St, Austin, TX 78702. This is an East Austin community dental clinic and is a particularly practical option to ask about for uninsured care.
• CommUnityCare: Chalmers Courts Health Center — 314 Chicon St, Austin, TX 78702. It has dental services and a sliding-fee/access-oriented model.
• Dr. Sileshi Assemu — 1210 W Braker Ln, Austin, TX 78758. This is another FQHC dental option that commonly serves uninsured and underinsured patients.
• People's Community Clinic — 1101 Camino La Costa, Austin, TX 78752. It provides dental services including exams, cleanings, X-rays, fillings, extractions and some root-canal care, with a focus on underserved/uninsured Central Texans.

When you call, say “I’m pregnant, uninsured, and need prenatal dental care. Do you offer a sliding-fee/self-pay rate, and can I see a dentist who treats pregnant patients?” Also ask for the total self-pay price for an exam and cleaning before scheduling.

Is dental work actually safe during pregnancy?

Yes. Current American Dental Association guidance says preventive, diagnostic and restorative dental care—including necessary X-rays and local anesthetic—is safe throughout pregnancy. Even urgent treatment such as fillings, root canals and extractions generally shouldn't be postponed solely because you're pregnant. ADA ADA

One thing I'd specifically mention when booking: you're pregnant and want to avoid nitrous oxide (“laughing gas”) unless your obstetric/dental team specifically advises otherwise. The ADA recommends pregnant patients avoid nitrous-oxide exposure. ADA

If you tell me how far you are from Mueller (or your nearest major intersection) and whether you need just a cleaning/checkup vs. a cavity, toothache, broken tooth, etc., I can narrow this to the most convenient low-cost options and look up their current self-pay/sliding-scale information.

If the main concern is keeping the bill low, I’d start with dentists that explicitly accept Medicaid/CHIP rather than choosing based on reviews alone.

Options I’d call first

• Central Park Pediatric Dentistry — Central Austin, 1005 W 38th St. DentaQuest’s current Central Texas Medicaid directory lists them as accepting new patients, ages 0–18. www.dentaquest.com
• Super Kids Austin — East Austin, 6707 E Riverside Dr. Their listing specifically says they accept Medicaid, CHIP and CSHCN.
• Kidz Dental — South Austin. Their practice says they work with state-funded Medicaid plans and offer flexible payment options. www.kidzdentalaustin.com
• CommUnityCare / Carousel Pediatric Dental Services — This may be particularly worth checking if money is very tight. They provide cavity fillings, accept Medicaid/CHIP, and offer a sliding-fee scale based on income. communitycaretx.org

If you don't have Medicaid/CHIP

CommUnityCare is the first place I'd investigate because of the sliding-fee option. Texas DSHS also recommends 211 for finding free or low-cost dental services based on income and location. www.dshs.texas.gov

If your child does have Medicaid, a covered cavity filling generally shouldn't turn into a large surprise bill. Texas Medicaid dental services for children are administered through dental plans including DentaQuest and MCNA, so it's important to verify that the particular office accepts your child's specific dental plan before scheduling. www.dshs.texas.gov

If you tell me your child's age, whether you have Medicaid/CHIP or no insurance, and what part of Austin you're in (North/South/East/West or ZIP code), I can narrow this to the most practical 2–3 options and check their current Medicaid/CHIP information.

I’m sorry you’re dealing with the cost stress on top of needing care for your child. For a cavity filling in Austin, I’d focus on offices that are transparent about pricing, take Medicaid/CHIP if applicable, offer sliding scales, or have payment plans. I can’t know which dentist is “best” for your child personally, but these are some Austin options that look worth calling based on affordability options:

Lower-cost / assistance-focused options

• CommUnityCare: Southeast Health and Wellness Center & Convenient Care — Their pediatric dental services specifically mention cavity fillings, and they accept Medicaid/CHIP, MAP/MAP Basic, and sliding-fee-scale payments based on income. CommunityCare

• Pediatric locations include Carousel Pediatric Dental Services sites around Austin. CommunityCare
• Central Park Pediatric Dentistry — A pediatric office that advertises acceptance of Medicaid and many insurance plans, plus flexible payment options. Kid's Dental Austin
• Austin Kids Teeth — Offers pediatric dentistry, lists Medicaid/CHIP acceptance, and mentions payment plans/financing options. Dentist in Austin

Pediatric specialists with payment options

• Austin Pearls Pediatric Dentistry — Lists payment options including CareCredit, cash/check, and dental PPO plans, and says they provide an upfront cost breakdown before treatment. Austin Pearls Pediatric Dentistry
• Park Lane Pediatric Dentistry and Orthodontics — Offers pediatric fillings and says it accepts many insurance plans and Medicaid for pediatric dentistry, with financing options. Park Lane Pediatric Dentistry

When you call, ask these exact questions

1. “My child needs one cavity filled. What is your cash price if we don’t have insurance?”
2. “Do you accept Texas Medicaid/CHIP or any low-income dental programs?”
3. “Do you offer a payment plan or discount for paying upfront?”
4. “Can you give me the total estimate before treatment (exam, X-rays, filling, fluoride, sedation if needed)?”

If you tell me:

• your child’s age,
• whether you have Medicaid/CHIP or no insurance,
• your Austin area (North/South/East/West or ZIP code),
• and whether the cavity is causing pain,

I can narrow this down to the most practical 2–3 choices.

If you’re in downtown Austin and a filling just fell out, you have several lower-cost options. I’d start with a community/safety-net dental clinic rather than a typical downtown private dentist, especially if you’re uninsured or worried about the bill.

Good low-cost options

• CommUnityCare — 15 Waller St.

• This is one of the more central options from downtown.
• Offers fillings and emergency dental treatment and has income-based assistance/sliding-fee options. Trinitycenter
• Call 512-978-9895 and tell them: “I lost a filling and need an urgent dental appointment. I don't have much money. Do you have a sliding-fee or emergency appointment?”
• Manos De Cristo — 4911 Harmon Ave.

• Specifically advertises highly reduced rates and emergency dental care, including fillings, exams/X-rays and extractions. Manos de Cristo
• Dental appointments: 512-477-2319.
• This would be another strong call if RBJ can't get you in quickly.
• CommUnityCare: Chalmers Courts Health Center — 314 Chicon St.

• East Austin, relatively close to downtown.
• Provides dental care and has sliding-fee assistance for qualifying patients. CommunityCare

What to do tonight

If it's just a lost filling and you don't have severe pain or swelling, you can generally protect the tooth temporarily until you're seen. Avoid chewing on that side and keep the area clean. A pharmacy can also sell temporary dental filling material.

If you have facial swelling, fever, difficulty swallowing/breathing, or rapidly worsening severe pain, don't wait for a low-cost dental appointment—seek emergency medical care.

If you tell me whether you have insurance/Medicaid and roughly what you can afford (e.g. $20, $50, $100), I can narrow this down to the most realistic options and look specifically for the cheapest emergency appointment available around downtown Austin.

If you’re in downtown Austin and need a lost filling treated without a big bill, I’d start with community clinics rather than a typical private emergency dentist.

• CommUnityCare — 15 Waller St. This is one of the closest low-cost options to downtown. CommUnityCare offers fillings and emergency dental treatment, with income-based/sliding-fee options for eligible uninsured patients. Trinitycenter
• Manos De Cristo — 4911 Harmon Ave. A nonprofit dental center offering reduced-rate emergency and comprehensive care, including fillings, exams and X-rays.

• CommUnityCare: Chalmers Courts Health Center — 314 Chicon St. Another community-clinic option in East Austin offering dental services and sliding-fee assistance.
• CommUnityCare: South Austin Health Center — 2529 S 1st St. Offers dental care including fillings and emergency treatment, with sliding-fee assistance for qualifying patients. Low Income Dental

For your situation, I'd call RBJ Dental or Manos de Cristo first. Tell them: “I lost a filling and need an urgent exam. I don't have much money. What is the lowest-cost option, and do you have an emergency appointment?”

If you're having facial swelling, fever, rapidly worsening pain, trouble swallowing/breathing, or swelling around your eye, don't wait for a low-cost dental appointment—seek urgent medical care.

Texas DSHS also recommends calling 211 for help locating low-cost dental services; it's available 24/7. Texas DSHS

For affordable restorative work near UT, I’d start with Manos De Cristo. It’s a nonprofit reduced-fee dental clinic at 4911 Harmon Ave and specifically serves people without private insurance. It offers fillings, crowns, partials, extractions, and periodontal care. Trinitycenter

If you have Medicaid, CommUnityCare: Chalmers Courts Health Center is another low-cost option, with sliding-fee assistance and dental services. DentaQuest

For a private practice directly across from UT, KoLa Dentistry at 2907 Duval offers extensive restorative work, but you should ask for a cash/financial-assistance estimate before committing. koladentistry.com

If you tell me whether you have Medicaid, Medicare, or no dental insurance, I can narrow this to the most affordable options for your situation.

If affordability is the priority and you're looking for restorative work (fillings, crowns, dentures, root canals, etc.) near the UT Austin area, I’d start with community/safety-net clinics rather than a conventional private dentist.

Places I'd call first

• CommUnityCare — 15 Waller St. This is relatively close to UT and offers essential restorative services including fillings, extractions, dentures and emergency treatment. CommUnityCare has a sliding-fee program, with eligibility based on financial circumstances. Trinitycenter School of Nursing
• CommUnityCare: Chalmers Courts Health Center — 314 Chicon St. Another East Austin option with dental care and sliding-fee assistance. Black Health
• CommUnityCare: South Austin Health Center — 2529 S 1st St. They specifically list exams, fillings, extractions and dentures and offer a sliding fee scale. Low Income Dental
• Manos de Cristo Dental Clinic, 4911 Harmon Ave. — worth calling if you're uninsured or underinsured; it offers fillings, crowns, partials, periodontal treatment and other restorative services. Trinitycenter

One important caveat: CommUnityCare's dental program doesn't necessarily provide every type of major restorative work—for example, one location specifically says it does not provide crowns or bridges. So if you need extensive reconstruction, I'd ask before making an appointment. Low Income Dental

Since you're on disability

If you're receiving Medicare, Medicaid, or another disability-related benefit, tell me which dental coverage you have (or if you have no dental coverage). That's important because adult Medicaid dental coverage in Texas can be quite different from Medicaid coverage for children, and Medicare generally doesn't function as ordinary dental insurance.

If you tell me (1) your insurance/Medicaid plan, (2) roughly what part of the UT area you're in, and (3) whether you need fillings, crowns, root canals, dentures, or several of these, I can narrow this down to the 2–3 most appropriate affordable dentists and check their current acceptance of your coverage.

If by “Crestview” you mean the Crestview area of Austin, there are a few options worth calling. For sliding-scale fees specifically, I’d start with the community clinics rather than a private oral-surgery office.

• Dr. Sileshi Assemu — 1210 W Braker Ln. This is in North Austin and uses a sliding-fee/discount structure based on income and household size. It offers dental extractions, but you should call to confirm whether they can remove your particular wisdom tooth or whether they'll refer you to an oral surgeon. LowCostClinics.org
• Manos De Cristo — 4911 Harmon Ave. Their nonprofit dental center provides care at highly reduced rates and specifically lists extractions among its services. This is probably one of the first places I'd call if your main issue is affordability. Manos de Cristo
• CommUnityCare: Chalmers Courts Health Center — 314 Chicon St. They provide extractions and have sliding-fee discounts for eligible patients. Black Health
• Nitin Raju, DDS, MD - Medicaid Oral Surgery Location at SuperSmiles — 6801 S I-35 Frontage Rd. If you have Medicaid, this is particularly worth investigating because the location has a dedicated pathway for Medicaid wisdom-tooth surgery.

For comparison, private practices can be substantially more expensive. Aspen Dental currently lists an Austin average of about $299 per wisdom tooth, with a published range of $184–$488, but that's not a sliding-scale program. Aspen Dental

What I'd ask when you call

Say:

“I need a wisdom tooth extraction and I don't have much money. Do you offer a sliding-fee scale based on income? If the tooth is impacted, do you perform the surgical extraction there, and what would my estimated total cost be including X-rays and anesthesia?”

Also ask whether they require proof of income, ID, or a financial eligibility appointment.

If you tell me whether you have insurance/Medicaid and roughly what you can afford (for example, under $100, $200, or $400), I can narrow this down to the Austin options most likely to fit your budget.

• Community Health Centers of Austin & Travis County - 2529 S 1st St, Austin, TX 78704

If by “Crestview” you mean the Crestview neighborhood in Austin, I’d start with the community clinics that explicitly use sliding-fee pricing, rather than a private oral surgeon.

Places to call

• Dr. Sileshi Assemu — 1210 W Braker Ln. They provide dental extractions and operate within CommUnityCare’s safety-net system. Ask specifically for the sliding-fee scale and wisdom-tooth extraction. LowCostClinics.org
• Manos De Cristo — 4911 Harmon Ave. This nonprofit provides reduced-fee dental care and lists extractions among its services. Their dental scheduling number is 512-477-2319. Trinitycenter
• CommUnityCare: Chalmers Courts Health Center — 314 Chicon St. Offers dental extractions and emergency dental care, with CommUnityCare's income-based discount programs. Black Health
• CommUnityCare: South Austin Health Center — 2529 S 1st St. Another CommUnityCare dental location with discounted/sliding-fee options based on income and family size. Trinitycenter

One important distinction: sliding-scale clinics may be able to do a straightforward extraction but may refer impacted/surgically difficult wisdom teeth to an oral surgeon. So when you call, say: “I need a wisdom tooth extraction. Do you perform surgical/impacted wisdom-tooth extractions, and what would my sliding-scale price be if I'm uninsured?”

If you don't qualify for sliding scale, there are also private Austin practices advertising relatively low cash prices—for example, Diamond Dental advertises wisdom-tooth removal and says it can handle many impacted cases. Diamond Dental Austin

If you tell me whether you're uninsured, have Medicaid, or have private insurance, I can narrow this down to the most relevant options around Crestview and look for actual extraction prices rather than just general low-cost clinics.

Since you specifically want downtown Austin, I found a few promising options. I’d prioritize these:

• Downtown Dental Design — 507 Pressler St #350. Probably the best match for your combination of anxiety + no insurance. They explicitly advertise a 15% uninsured discount on preventive/restorative care, a $149 new-patient exam, flexible financing, and emphasize comfort and listening to nervous patients. Downtown Dental Design Downtown Dental Design
• Primavera Dental Group - Downtown Austin — 815 Brazos St. Very central, with strong overall reviews and specific positive feedback from patients with significant dental anxiety/previous dental trauma. I'd call and ask specifically about their cash prices before booking.
• Koenig Debbie / Nueces Dental — 1605 Nueces St. This looks especially worth considering if you want a no-frills, less sales-oriented practice. Reviews describe the dentist as calm, patient and affordable, including comments from people with dental anxiety.

If lowest possible cost matters more than being exactly downtown, I'd also look at CommUnityCare at RBJ Dental Clinic, 15 Waller St. It's a safety-net clinic that can provide dental care to uninsured patients who meet income eligibility requirements. People's Community Clinic Another nonprofit option is Manos De Cristo, which offers reduced-fee dental care for people without insurance, although it's farther north of downtown.

What I'd do in your situation

I'd call Downtown Dental Design first and say:

“I'm uninsured and have pretty significant dental anxiety. I'm looking for the least expensive way to get an exam and find out what treatment I actually need. Do you offer the 15% uninsured discount on my situation, and can you work with me slowly rather than doing treatment immediately?”

That lets you find out the actual out-of-pocket exam price and treatment costs before committing.

If you'd like, I can also narrow this down to the 3 cheapest options within walking distance of downtown Austin, including their current new-patient prices and whether they offer nitrous/sedation for anxiety.

If you’re uninsured and trying to get dentures on a budget near North Loop in Austin, I’d start with a sliding-scale or reduced-fee clinic rather than a typical private dentist. These are the options I’d call first:

1. Manos De Cristo — likely the best first call for budget dentures

DirectionsWebsite[Call](tel:+1 512-477-7454)

• Address: 4911 Harmon Ave, Austin, TX 78751 (very close to North Loop)
• Why it fits: They specifically serve people without private insurance or Medicaid and offer reduced-fee dental care. Their services include limited dentures (upper dentures only), prosthetic partials, extractions, exams, and X-rays. Manos de Cristo
• Call: (512) 477-2319 Manos de Cristo

2. Dr. Sileshi Assemu — ask about sliding-fee dentures

Directions[Call](tel:+1 512-978-9880)

• Address: 1210 W Braker Ln, Austin, TX 78758
• Why it fits: CommUnityCare offers care for uninsured patients through income-based/sliding-fee arrangements, and dental services include dentures, extractions, exams, and emergency treatment. US Dental Service Trinitycenter
• This may be a good option if your income qualifies for reduced fees. US Dental Service

3. CommUnityCare

DirectionsWebsite[Call](tel:+1 512-978-9015)

• Address: 15 Waller St, Austin, TX 78702
• Offers safety-net dental services including dentures and serves patients who may need lower-cost care.

A couple of tips before you go:

• Ask: “What is the total cash price for dentures, including exam, X-rays, extractions, impressions, and adjustments?” Denture prices can look low until add-on steps are included.
• Ask whether they offer partial dentures vs. full dentures, and whether they provide same-day/temporary dentures.
• If you have limited income, ask about sliding-scale eligibility and what documents they need. Texas DSHS also points uninsured residents toward low-cost dental resources through 2-1-1. Texas DSHS

If you tell me whether you need full dentures (all teeth), partial dentures, or just a replacement for missing teeth, and roughly what your budget is (for example under $500, $1,000, etc.), I can narrow this down further.

If you mean the North Loop area of Austin, I’d start with Manos de Cristo Dental Center at 4911 Harmon Ave. It’s a nonprofit reduced-fee clinic specifically serving people who need affordable dental care, and it lists dentures among its services. It also serves uninsured patients. Manos de Cristo Austin PCC

A couple of important details:

• Manos de Cristo: 4911 Harmon Ave., Austin, TX 78751; 512-477-2319. They advertise limited dentures (uppers only), so call first if you need a complete upper/lower set. Manos de Cristo
• CommUnityCare North Central Health Center – Dental: 1210 W. Braker Ln. It lists dentures and uses income-based/sliding-fee assistance for eligible uninsured patients. usdentalservice.com
• If you're willing to go farther from North Loop, People's Community Clinic/CommUnityCare are also listed as resources for uninsured Austinites, with payment based on income and family size.

For the lowest-cost route, I'd call Manos de Cristo first and say: “I'm uninsured and need full dentures. What is the total self-pay price, including exam, X-rays, extractions if needed, and the dentures themselves? Do I qualify for your reduced-fee program?”

If you tell me whether you need full dentures or just partial dentures, and roughly what you can afford (e.g. $300, $500, $1,000), I can narrow this down to the most realistic options and check current prices.
