Program Information

Girl at dentistThe Community Dental Program provides clinical and preventive services for low income adults and children residing in Franklin County. This includes the Family Dental Service (clinic) and the Dental Sealant Program.

Family Dental Services ( Dental Clinic)

Basic dental services provided include exams, x-rays, cleanings, fillings, extractions (pulling teeth), some root canals, and denture repairs. Fees are determined by a sliding-fee, which is determined by family size and income. Medicaid and private insurance are also accepted.

Emergency clinics are held on Mondays, Thursdays, and Fridays. (Call at 8:00 am on those days to schedule emergency appointments.) By appointment only. No walk-in service. Interpretation services are provided. The Dental Clinic is a program of Columbus Neighborhood Health Centers.

Dental Sealant Program

This school-based program offers free protective dental sealants (plastic coatings) on the back permanent molars of 2nd and 6th grade students in the Columbus Public Schools.

A dentist screens the students who have parent permission and teams of dental hygienists and dental assistants place the sealants with portable dental equipment at the schools.

Since 1986, over 53,000 Columbus school children have received preventive dental sealants on over 180,000 permanent teeth.
