It's difficult to determine based on the information given whether your son's lack of future dental care is due to "the Obama health care bill" or some other factor(s). I know President Obama would not want your son to go without dental care, and maybe the dentist is just not one of the President's political supporters. I have heard that the State of California has cut nearly all Denti-Cal adult dental care services, claiming a lack of funding. It may be that Governor Schwarzenegger and the State Legislature are equally to blame, or more to blame, than are Congress or the President. I have heard that President Obama does read some of his mail, and you certainly have nothing to lose by writing to him about your situation.
