Description:
Donated Dental Services (DDS) is a program directed at people who are unable to afford needed dental care because of a limited income which is clearly linked to a permanent disability, chronic illness or advanced age (65 and over). All the information pertaining to the applicants need is based on a completed application and a phone interview done by the referral coordinator.

Dentists have agreed to volunteer their services to 1-2 patients a year. Each volunteer dentist decides for him/herself whether to formally accept a person based on meeting the person and assessing his or her dental needs. The referral coordinator is available to help the volunteers with such matters as a referral to a specialist, and securing donated laboratory services should a patient need services with lab related needs.
