This is a SLIDING SCALE clinic. The costs for clinic services are based on either your income or they offer type of financial assistance. Contact the clinic directly to discuss prices for individual services which vary. Sliding Scale does not necessarily mean free.

Low Cost/Sliding Scale Dental Clinic

Church Health's dental clinic offers comprehensive dental care, including examinations, x-rays, cleanings, fillings, extractions, root canals, crowns and periodontal therapy to established Church Health and MEMPHIS Plan patients. We have three full-time staff dentists, dental hygienists and many volunteer dentists committed to restoring your complete oral health.
To schedule a new patient dental appointment, please call during normal business hours and you will be scheduled or put on the waitlist for our first available appointment time.

For your first dental appointment, we ask that you arrive no later than 30 minutes prior to your appointment time for paperwork and check-in. Please bring the following items:
Drivers license or state ID
    Proof of Income (paystub, tax return)
    Proof of Residency (utility bill, mailing)
Your first appointment will be 1-2 hours long and will include x-rays, a comprehensive exam, oral cancer screening, hypertension and diabetes check, oral hygiene instruction, treatment plan, and cleaning (if time allows).  You will be expected to pay the balance of the new patient visit in full before scheduling additional work.
Emergency Care
Church Health offers same-day dental emergency appointments for established patients, waitlist patients, and MEMPHIS Plan patients.  All emergency appointment times are offered on a first-call basis. We encourage patients needing emergency care to call early to secure an appointment time so we can help you that day. We do NOT accept walk-in patients.
Free Child Care During Your Dental Visit
If you have children between the ages of 6 weeks and 12 years, we encourage you to check them into Church Health's children's program, The Well, located on the first floor. This is a service provided to you free of charge during your scheduled appointment time.
The Well Hours
8 a.m. – 12:45 p.m.
2 p.m. – 8 p.m.
Note: The Well has a 2-hour time limit for each child. Please arrive early for your dental appointment to transition your child downstairs to sign in. Alert the front desk Dental staff that your child is checked into our children's program.
