Sliding Scale Clinics
Sliding scale clinics offer a flexible payment model for their dental services. They’re for people who can’t afford dental care due to unemployment, underemployment, or a lack of health insurance.
The sliding scale model depends on each person’s income, family size, and how the clinic organizes its scale. People in poverty typically pay less than people who earn more money.
