Founded in 1974, Dental Aid was the first nonprofit, comprehensive dental clinic in the United States. Forty-nine years later, Dental Aid is providing affordable, high-quality, comprehensive dental care to thousands of children and adults every year. Here at Dental Aid, we believe everyone deserves to have healthy teeth and gums. Financial status should not limit anyone from receiving high quality oral health care. We reserve most of out appointments to the lower income population. We reveive funding to assist qualifying patients with the cost of care. We serve children, adults, and seniors with individualized care.
Dental Aid’s mission is to improve the quality of life of children and adults struggling to afford health care by providing compassionate, affordable, high quality dental care and education, while advocating to ensure access to care.
