Interfaith Dental Clinic

Interfaith was founded in 1994 as a two-chair operation in the basement of West End United Methodist Church to provide affordable dental care for working, low-income, uninsured individuals, families and seniors. Interfaith Dental Clinic creates a healthier community by providing transformational oral health care for those experiencing poverty. The agency’s goals/outcomes for the year include: 1,700 out of 2,500 (68%) individuals will have their immediate crisis needs met through treatment that relieves pain and given recommendations for increased wellness involving oral hygiene, lifestyle changes, and/or further treatment. 1,300 out of 2,500 (52%) individuals will establish a relationship with a usual care provider and have their teeth cleaned, sealants placed, and display adequate oral hygiene home care practices for themselves and their children upon review.
