Join our Mission
Grace Clinic is seeking compassionate Volunteer Dentists to help provide essential dental care to uninsured adults at Grace Clinic. Our patients are hard-working adults living in Benton and Franklin Counties who often work low-wage jobs and cannot afford health insurance or dental care. Many live with ongoing dental pain and delayed treatment simply because care is out of reach. By volunteering your time, you can help restore health, relieve pain, and improve quality of life for patients who need it most.

Why Volunteer with Grace Clinic?
· Flexible scheduling — volunteer when it works for you. We schedule patients around your availability.
· Most dentists serve just 3–4 hours per shift, a minimum of once per year. Clinic hours are Tuesday–Fri, 8:00 AM – 5:00 PM and Saturday 8:00 AM- 12:00 PM.
· Volunteer dental assistants are available for every clinic session.
· NO crowns, root canals, bridges, denture services, or braces.
· Supportive, mission-driven, fun team environment. All volunteers truly want to be there.

What You'll Do
· Exams and diagnoses, including X-rays
· Fillings
· Extractions
· Referrals
What We're Looking For
· Licensed DDS or DMD providers
· Compassionate and patient-centered
· Comfortable providing general dental treatment
· Interested in serving under-served populations
Your Impact
Every volunteer shift helps patients receive care they may otherwise go without. A few hours of your time can change someone's life.
