DENTAL CLINIC
The Good Samaritan Health Clinic provides a Dental Clinic Wednesday at 4:00pm
For emergency extractions and fillings only.
Unfortunately, at this time we cannot extract wisdom teeth.
Eligible patients can request up to four (4) tooth extractions per year. Each extraction is at the discretion of the dentist.
A $5.00 co-pay is requested upon seeing the doctor. However, no patient will be turned away if they do not have the co-payment.
Adult Pasco County residents up to age 65 who are uninsured and are ineligible for Medicaid can apply for services. The clinic does not treat patients who qualify for Medicare or are military veterans. Only routine (non-emergency) medical conditions are treated. Application and financial screening to meet eligibility requirements must be completed prior to receiving a medical or dental appointment. A $5 donation is requested from each patient for each visit.

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.
