Elder Dental Program
If you or a loved one needs affordable oral health care, the Elder Dental Program may be able to help. We are a community-based, nonprofit program dedicated to helping local elders access quality dental care.
The program has a network of local dentists who volunteer to treat low-income elders at significantly reduced fees.
Please email elderdental@verizon.net or call 781-769-3710 for information on upcoming elder dental clinics or for more detailed information on the program.
