Donated Dental Services available to North Carolina

The Donated Dental Services (DDS) program is a collaborative, direct way that the dental profession reaches out to individuals with special needs. Thanks to a grant from the North Carolina Health and Wellness Trust Fund Commission, Donated Dental Services program is now available to North Carolina.

The program is operated by the National Foundation of Dentistry for the Handicapped (NFDH) in partnership with the North Carolina Dental Society. The eligibility criteria for the program is simple. People who are elderly are initially being given priority, although those with disabilities and people who are medically compromised may also apply.

Applications are currently being accepted. For a copy of the application please click here: Donated Dental Services Application
