Frequently asked questions
What's the difference between a dental clinic and a dental office?
The terms are often interchangeable, but 'clinic' frequently refers to a multi-provider practice, a hospital-affiliated dental department, or a community/federally qualified health center offering services on a sliding scale.
Are community dental clinics legitimate?
Yes. Federally qualified health centers (FQHCs) and many community clinics are nonprofit and provide care regardless of ability to pay. Search the HRSA Find a Health Center directory for centers near you.
Do clinics offer the same care as a private dentist?
Most clinics provide preventive care, fillings, extractions, and basic restorative work. Specialty services may be referred to outside specialists, similar to a general dental practice.
