Becoming a Candidate for Free Dental Care
ClinicalTrials.gov offers up-to-date information for locating federally and privately supported clinical trials for a wide range of diseases and conditions.
Community agency based free dental treatments, along with donated dentistry can be found at www.free-dentistry.com
Medicaid recipients can find a national (USA) medicaid provider directory at www.medicaiddentistry.com.
Individuals and families who are in critical need of dental treatment and are experiencing undue economic hardship (for whatever reason) should be able to qualify for special assistance through the HRSA (Health Resources and Services Administration) programs that enable patients to obtain health care regardless of their ability to pay.
Visit our Federal Dental Health website to search for free help in your region.
Qualifying for Research
Three types of research are performed, including Clinical, Interventional and Observational.
People who choose to become a participant in clinical research trials can gain access to new research treatments before they are widely available, help others by contributing to medical research and
play a more active role in their own health care.
Each research project provides detailed eligibility criteria and a description of the conditions being researched or treated, along with the types of treatments or procedures.
The project directors for each study can be contacted via email and/or telephone.
Persons interested in becoming a candidate for a particular research project should read the study details and write down questions to ask the project director when contact is made.
More comprehensive information is available at the ClinicalTrials.gov website of the U.S. National Institutes of Health and National Library of Medicine.
Many research projects have been but have not yet begun recruiting for research candidates and subjects. Check back with us frequently for updates and new study announcements.
