The Children's Dental Clinic provides services that create brighter, happier and—most importantly—healthier smiles for more than 200 children each month.

Our low cost childen's dental clinic in Phoenix, AZ serves individuals ages 4 through 20, both AHCCCS and uninsured, regardless of school enrollment. Desert Mission provides a safety net of seamless services to enable clients to achieve the highest degree of wellness possible. Because of this philosophy, school-aged individuals not attending school will have access to social services, where educational and career opportunities are discussed.

The work we do is made possible by our generous volunteer dentists and hygienists, as well as our donors. We hope you will consider joining them in their commitment to meet the dental needs of our community.
