Our Orthodontic Program serves over 450 active patients and 130 retainer patients from low to moderate income families. The program will expand to serve 700 patients by 2011.
Beginning in 1969, our Orthodontic Program has provided high quality, affordable care to economically-disadvantaged patients with orthodontic problems. The cost of service is based upon the family’s ability to pay, with a special grant program, Adopt a Child’s Smile, which provides care with funds donated by individual and corporate sponsors.
