Dignity though Dentistry
For over 30 years, Dientes has worked to ensure that cost, insurance, income, race, language, and transportation do not prevent people from visiting the dentist. We do this by providing affordable, high-quality, and comprehensive dental care for patients who are on public insurance or uninsured. Since 1992, we have treated 50,000 patients.
We believe that it is only when our neighbors have their basic needs met, including access to dental care, that
our community can truly thrive and flourish.
Our mission is 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.
