Carolina Family Dental Center

History

The unmet need for accessible and affordable oral health services in rural North Carolina is overwhelming. For more than two decades, Carolina Family Health Centers, Inc. has recognized and accepted the challenge to include dental care and treatment in its comprehensive scope of service.

As early as 1998, Carolina Family Health Centers has offered dental services, beginning with a part-time Dentist and a fold-up, temporary chair. Throughout the next several years, Carolina Family expanded its oral health program and eventually established services delivered from each of its three physical locations.

In 2018, a federal grant made possible the opening of a brand new dental facility; Carolina Family Dental Center. The building, located in Nash County beside Harvest Family Health Center, houses 15 operatories with state-of-the-art digital equipment in every room. Several dentists and staff deliver care of the highest quality.
