The Community Dental Access Centre will be non-profit; sustained through grants, donations, volunteer support, student practitioners and clients.

Fees charged will depend on the client’s income. Emergency treatment will be provided free of charge for those with dental infection and no means to pay for care.

FUTURE PROGRAMS

Full Service Preventive and Restorative Care

The centre will provide the full scope of preventive and restorative care for clients.

Gum Care

Regular dental cleaning and periodontal care help us keep our natural teeth longer; we will work with you to improve your gum health, one step at a time.

Small Smiles Program

The Community Dental Access Centre will offer a free first dental check-up for children between the ages of 12 and 24 months. Children receive a Knee to Knee dental check. This check is to identify white spot lesions before they become cavities and start early preventive care.

Kidz Cavity Prevention Club

Children age 2-12 years are eligible to join the Kidz Cavity Prevention Club if they wish to work towards cavity free dental check-ups. This includes a picture on the wall, participation in cavity prevention activities and a chance to win a monthly prize.

Denture Care

Clients can receive needed denture care.

Prepayment Option

Big treatment needs can be overwhelming; we will help organize your treatment so that you pay a portion each month until you have a credit to proceed and have the work done.

Quit Now

If you wish to be tobacco free we can connect you to resources and a local support group.

Berard Dental Access Fund

Depending on availability of funds generated by fund raising, clients can apply once yearly for additional assistance.

Volunteer Care Team

Visiting the dentist can cause anxiety. Our volunteers will be there to help you feel comfortable, assist with needed paperwork and explain your payment options.
