Title: Dientes! Community dental clinic: dental care for low-income residents of Santa Cruz County. Author: Balzer J, Webb C. Journal: J Calif Dent Assoc; 1998 May; 26(5):391-3. PubMed ID: 10528572. Abstract: Dientes! is a private nonprofit community dental clinic that was established in 1994 to provide dental care for low-income residents of Santa Cruz County. Its founders were successful in securing support from a diverse group of community agencies, including city and county governments, philanthropic foundations, the dental community, and corporate and individual donors. Dientes! provides approximately 250 visits per month in a three-chair clinic in Santa Cruz; a school-based program in Watsonville began March 1998. The major challenge facing Dientes! is to establish a reliable financial base that will allow the program to better meet the needs of low-income county residents over the long term.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
