About public health dentistry

Dental public health is the specialty concerned with the oral health of whole communities. At a clinic, a dentist registered this way is often part of a programme serving people who struggle to get care elsewhere.

Paying for a visit

This is a community health center. Federal rules require it to offer discounts based on income and household size, and it cannot turn you away because you cannot pay. How sliding-scale fees work at community health centers

In New Mexico, adult Medicaid covers some adult dental care, but not everything. What New Mexico Medicaid covers, service by service

Questions to ask when you call

  • Are you taking new patients, and how soon is the first appointment?
  • Does Afra Hussain see adults, and do you take my Medicaid plan?
  • What income documents should I bring to get the sliding-fee discount?
  • What will the first visit cost me, and what will it include?

A dentist registered at an address may work there only some days, or may have moved on. The clinic's front desk can confirm.
