Interfaith Dental Clinic Changing our community, one smile at a time.
 

Our Mission

The mission of the Interfaith Dental Clinic is to restore, protect, and improve the oral health of uninsured, low-income, working people, their children and the elderly in the greater Nashville area through access to affordable quality dental care, oral disease prevention services, and oral health education.

The Interfaith Dental Clinic is a 501(c)(3) program founded to bring people of all faiths together in a healing ministry, serving the working poor through quality, comprehensive dental care. The clinic does NOT see walk-in patients, and the current waiting period for new patient visits is 8-10 weeks. An application to become a patient is available in English and Spanish for printing, or one can be picked up at our office.

The Interfaith Dental Clinic will host its 15th annual gala and auction, Southern Smiles, on February 25, 2012 at the Loveless Barn.  This year’s gala, will be an “upscale rustic” event complete with a fabulous strolling dinner of southern cuisine and cocktails accompanied by live entertainment.  Last year’s event raised more than $207,000 for patient care.  To attend contact Maryanne at    615-942-1239  or or or maryanne [at] interfaithdentalclinic [dot] com
