Nova Southeastern University (NSU) Dental Clinic offers a private patient dental screening by dental students. During this visit, a brief examination will be made to evaluate the patient, including a panoramic x-ray. If the patient's needs are either too complex or extensive to be treated in the student clinic, then the patient may be offered a referral for treatment in the NSU Dental Post Graduate Clinic or Faculty Practice. If accepted in the student clinic, the patient's next 1-2 appointments are spent evaluating particular needs and writing a treatment plan which includes the estimated cost of treatment. There is a $25 fee for this process. The overall treatment cost is generally considerably less than what is charged at a normal dental office.

Many communities have clinics that charge little or nothing for dental care. They are usually run by nonprofits, community health centers, dental schools and local health departments, and they often rely on grants, donations and public funding. Some serve everyone on a sliding fee scale, while others focus on children, seniors or people without insurance. Every clinic sets its own rules, so call ahead and ask what you qualify for.
