Dental Examination? No insurance? Check this out!

So one of the struggles I had after I received my invitation is how to fill out my dental forms without insurance.  My insurance is no expired since its almost a year since I've graduated.  Then, almost by a miracle, someone on tumblr put this link (http://www.usa-icd.org/projects/peace-corps/index.htm) on the the Peace Corps tab.  This link provides a list of dentists who are willing to take care of the forms that we have to fill out at no charge!  Here is the blurb on the site:

"These U.S.A. Section Fellows are volunteering to provide a dental examination and x-rays for Peace Corps applicants at no charge if called upon. The dentists are not compensated for their time, equipment or supplies. If the dentist shares a dental practice, please do not schedule an appointment with a partner, as he or she may not be a Fellow on our list of volunteers. Applicants are asked to allow for ample time to fit an appointment into the dentist's schedule. The applicant will bring a Peace Corps dental examination form to the appointment. Any dental treatment needed to bring his/her mouth to a healthy state will be the financial responsibility of the Peace Corps applicant. Applicants may choose to be treated by their own dentists."

From what I have heard, these are very credible dentists who are being generous in providing this service.  I'm so happy I found this site!  If only I could find a similar link telling of doctors I could visit for my medical forms!
