The Gap

At Filling the Gap Dental Outreach, we must ensure resources are being devoted to those most in need. To qualify for an appointment at Filling the Gap Dental Outreach, all patients must first complete a screening process.

In addition to other criteria, patients must…

 Please note that Filling the Gap Dental Outreach is not a comprehensive care program and does not provide routine dental care, “checkups,” or more advanced treatment. As a charity, visits are by appointment only, and we can only offer up to a maximum of three visits to eligible patients as time and resources permit. We encourage all patients to seek comprehensive care as soon as possible.
