San Gabriel Valley Foundation for Dental Health: a hand up, not a handout

The San Gabriel Valley Foundation for Dental Health Clinic was established to offer reduced-fee health care to the needy. The basic tenets of the clinic are to minimize dental disease by teaching prevention and treat the dental needs of the disadvantaged, while teaching responsibility for the cost of dental care. Beneficiaries of the clinic include patients, dental assisting students, volunteer dentists, and organized dentistry.
