Elder Dental Program

The Elder Dental Program (EDP) is a non-profit program that provides quality, affordable oral health care to low-income seniors, ages 60 and older, through a group of community dentists who volunteer to provide treatment at reduced, sliding-scale fees. The EDP helps seniors who have incomes that fall at 250% or less of the Federal Poverty Level. Care not covered by the sliding-scale fee schedule is absorbed by the dentist. We find seniors a “dental home” where they can continue to have regular care, as well as emergency dental services, at reduced fees they can afford. For more information about this program contact Chris Weylman at 774-203-1326 or email at Cweylman@ communityvna.com
