Aww! Im just in the clinics for the first time! Yes it's all FREE. mostly we get uneducated patients from the slum, sometimes we get educated (like this one) with huge problems and not wanting to shell out money. India is really crap for dentists. Lol. Sometimes we have to throw in our money to make the prosthesis. I've heard orthodontics Post graduate students complaining of having to buy the brackets and wires for all the patients from their own money. It sucks money wise, and none of knew this when we joined.
