Children's Dental Clinic
The Children’s Dental
Clinic provides free dental care to eligible children from Wichita and Sedgwick County Schools. To be
eligible, children ages 5 through 15 cannot have private dental insurance, Medicaid, or Kansas HealthWave and must qualify for the free or reduced lunch program at their school.
The school nurse makes referrals for children to participate in the clinic. Wichita State University dental hygiene students receive clinical experience and instruction as they provide preventive care
under the supervision of the staff hygienist. More than
29 volunteer dentists and oral surgeons from the community donate their time and services to
address children's restorative and extraction needs.
For more information, call 316-660-7300.
