Standing for equity and justice for all.
At Dientes Community Dental Care, we stand together in condemnation of racism in all its forms.
We are on a mission to create lasting oral health for the low-income children, adults and seniors of Santa Cruz County and neighboring communities -- so that everyone has the dignity that comes from a healthy smile.
For over 25 years, we have worked to ensure that cost, insurance, income, race, language, and transportation don’t prevent people from visiting the dentist. We do this by providing affordable, high-quality, and comprehensive dental care for 11,000 patients who are on public insurance or are uninsured.
