Urgent appointments are available, and an on-staff endodontist provides root canal treatment.
The official dental page lists Nacef Bahri, DMD, Erica Davis, DMD, Ganga Subedi, BDS, and Oddessa Saunders-Williamson, DMD, MA. The department also works with dental students and Advanced Education in General Dentistry residents through Boston University and Tufts.
Dental hours are Monday through Thursday 8:30 AM–8:30 PM and Friday 8:30 AM–5 PM. Call the health center at 617-825-9660 or its scheduling line at 617-822-8271 to ask about appointments. The center offers a sliding fee schedule based on household size and income and states that inability to pay does not prevent access to its services.
