Nonprofit Organizations

Several nonprofit organizations in the United States focus on providing free dental care to children. These organizations often operate dental clinics or partner with existing clinics to offer free or low-cost services. Some examples of these organizations include Give Kids A Smile, which provides free dental care to underserved children, and Operation Smile, which offers dental care to children with cleft lip and palate.

Nonprofit dental clinics may also have income-based sliding scale fees, which means that the cost of dental care is adjusted based on the income of the child's family. This ensures that even families who do not qualify for government programs can still access affordable dental care for their children.
