Because we serve a special population, many patients will not qualify to be treated in our clinic. We have developed a list of questions that can help you determine if a patient meets these qualifications:
- Are you an existing patient of HHS Dentistry? If yes, you may qualify to be seen
- Do you have a referral from your dentist or another healthcare provider? If yes, you may qualify to be seen
- Is the patient 10 years or younger AND does the child get primary care at Hennepin Healthcare? If yes, you may qualify to be seen
- Does the patient have Developmental Disabilities?
- Does the patient have a legal guardian?
- Does that patient need general anesthesia for general dental work?
- If yes to any of the questions above, you may qualify to be seen
- Does the patient need a tooth taken out, a biopsy, or another surgical procedure? If yes, you may qualify to be seen.
