Dental
Research indicates that good oral health is important to a
person’s overall health and wellbeing. As a federally qualified
community health center, Gulf Coast Health Center provides general
dentistry services for adults and children in our communities. GCHC’s
Dental Center in Port Arthur is the only dental clinic in Jefferson
County dedicated to providing affordable, accessible care to the
uninsured and underserved. Our low cost, high quality dental services
are the only available option for many Southeast Texas residents who are
without dental insurance and would otherwise be unable to afford the
cost of dental care.
We have recently expanded and doubled the size
of our dental department to 8 exam rooms and we now employ 4 dentist and
2 dental hygienist. This expansion will allow us to serve our community
with quicker appointments and high quality service.
