Our Orthodontic Program serves 667 active patients and 218 patients in retainers from low-to-moderate income families.

Beginning in 1969, our Orthodontic Program has provided high quality, affordable care to economically-disadvantaged patients with orthodontic problems.  The cost of service is based upon the family’s ability to pay, with a special grant program, Adopt a Child’s Smile, which provides care with funds donated by individual and corporate sponsors.
