Dental Team Care Clinic
The CU Dental Team Care Clinic provides thorough, comprehensive care at significantly discounted rates. Because we are a teaching facility, care is provided by dental students under the supervision of highly-skilled faculty who oversee all aspects of treatment. Most appointments are scheduled for three hours to allow time for the teaching process. However, this extra time means you get expert opinions from multiple dental professionals.
Before becoming a patient, you will receive a free-of-charge screening exam to determine if a supervised dental student can address your dental needs or if you need specialized care at one of our advanced care clinics.
The screening exam will last approximately one hour 15 minutes and may include dental x-rays if needed. X-rays cost up to $90, and payment will be due at the time of the appointment. You may also bring x-rays from another dental provider if the x-rays were taken within the past two years.
To schedule a screening appointment, please call: (303) 724-2273
Please bring the following to your first visit:
- Completed patient forms (will save you time at your first visit)
- Insurance/Health First Colorado (formerly Medicaid) Card
- Current x-rays (within the past two years)
- List of medications and dosage information
With fees typically 30-50% lower than private practices, the CU Dental Team Care Clinic is a great option for patients without insurance and those who want their insurance dollars to go further.
The CU Dental Team Care Clinic accepts cash, check (with ID), debit cards, credit cards, Health First Colorado (formerly Medicaid), and is a Delta Dental in-network provider. The school will accept other forms of dental insurance as an out-of-network provider. Medicare and payment plans are not accepted at this time.
We are always available to help you with insurance claims and paperwork, and we are happy to work with your insurance provider to make sure you understand your insurance benefits. Regardless of insurance status, the patient is responsible for timely payments of any fees.
