Free or Low-Cost Dental Services for Seniors

  • Many seniors face financial barriers when it comes to accessing dental care.
  • Fortunately, there are several resources and programs available that provide free or low-cost dental services specifically for seniors.
  • One option is to look for federally funded health centers that offer dental services on a sliding fee scale based on income.
  • These centers are located in various communities and provide comprehensive dental care to seniors at an affordable cost.
  • Another resource is dental schools, which often have clinics where dental students provide supervised dental treatment at reduced prices.
  • These clinics can be a great option for seniors who are looking for quality dental care at a lower cost.
  • Some nonprofit organizations and dental associations also offer free dental clinics or events specifically for seniors.
  • These clinics may provide cleanings, fillings, extractions, and even dentures to seniors in need.
