Have a toothache?  Need a filling but can’t afford to pay?  Sometimes even the insured have trouble footing the bill for that perfect, pain-free smile.  Dentistry is an expensive endeavor, so why not save yourself the financial burden and give the UCLA School of Dentistry a call?

The school, with its array of general and specialty clinics, provides its patients with everything from cleanings and routine check-ups to advanced repair, replacement and supporting structures.  Whether you select a student dentist, a resident dentist or an expert faculty member, the school’s fees (while varying by provider level) can be as low as half the cost of your regular dentist.  And if you choose a student or resident to save more money, rest assured that they will be supervised every step of the way by an experienced faculty member.

So pick up some toothpaste and floss from your local 99 Cents Only Store and make an appointment for that cleaning and check-up you’ve been avoiding since the Reagan era.  A smile is a terrible thing to waste.
