To operate a dental clinic to provide free and reduced-fee dental services to unemployed and uninsured adults, needy children and Medicaid patients who have been unable to acquire such services.One of the keys to solving the access to care issue is to improve the productivity of the existing dental workforce model. This has been the focus of the Foundation's initiative with Virginia Commonwealth University School of Dentistry, training students to see 7-8 patients / day instead of the 2 that they're able to treat in the dental school environment. Grant goals include increasing capacity to rotate every senior dental student through this model, and to provide needed same-day crown services to our patient population, while exposing dental students to the most up-to-date technologies in the marketplace. It is hoped that this model can be utilized across the nation.

Please be aware that not all clinics are totally cost-free. Sliding Scale doesn't mean free. Many times, we will include surrounding clinics in our search results because certain cities only have a small number of clinics. The information about the clinics is provided on the page, but we cannot guarantee that it is true; you must contact the clinic directly. Depending on your income or the kind of financial support the clinic provides, the price of its services may vary. To talk about the costs of various services, get in touch with the clinic directly.
