The dental clinic offers restorative care as well as emergency extractions. The restorative clinic operates Monday through Friday by appointment only. During this time, we offer full exam and assessments, fillings, cleanings, select root canals, flippers and extractions. We also use digital x-rays and electronic medical records to provide quality care to our patients. For most of these services, a full exam is required before starting treatment.
Evening emergency visits and extractions are offered by appointment only. The frequency of evening clinics is generally based on the availability of volunteer dentists from the community. Evening clinics start at 4:30pm and are group appointments, which means that the order in which patients arrive and sign in is the order in which they will be seen. Extraction clinics are also offered on the second and fourth Saturdays of every month.
We do not offer the following services at this time: partials or dentures, crowns, bridges, implants, braces, teeth whitening, or involved oral surgery (biopsies, bony-impacted extractions, cleft palate surgeries, etc.)

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.
