Program Description:
11/2024: Currently accepting applications, but there is currently a waitlist.
The mission of the WDA Foundation’s Donated Dental Services (DDS) program is to help bring needed dental care to Wisconsin residents who are unable to afford treatment because of a limited income that is clearly linked to a permanent disability, or advanced age (65 and older) or Veterans without VA Dental Benefits. This program is by application only. Eligibility is determined based on a completed written application and phone interview by the DDS referral coordinator. When a patient is accepted into the program, he/she is put on a waiting list until a volunteer participating dentist becomes available. The number of individuals on the waiting list varies by county.
Wisconsin dentists who participate in the program have agreed to volunteer their services to one or two patients a year. Each volunteer dentist decides for him/herself whether to formally accept an individual based on a face-to-face meeting to assess dental needs. The referral coordinator is available to help the volunteers with such matters as a referral to a specialist and securing donated laboratory services if needed.*
