West Kootenay Community TEETH Clinic Society

Provides access to more affordable dental care, including dentures, for low income individuals and families throughout the West Kootenay area. 

The TEETH Clinic in Nelson has now re-opened, following a devastating fire. Despite the fire,  dental records were saved. Already registered patients DO NOT need to re-register.  

Applicants must provide proof of income and minimum of 3 month residency to complete the eligibility assessment and will then receive information about available lower cost dental services in various WK communities.
