Doña Ana Community College (DACC)’s dental clinic is now happy to announce it is accepting Medicaid insurance.
The low-cost clinic is open to the public and accepts patients of all ages. The facility already accepts Delta Dental and self-pay and now accepts Medicaid recipients.
“This is a wonderful addition to our clinic to be able to reach more individuals in our community and expand access to dental health care services in our community,” says Dr. Elmer Gonzalez, Dental Programs dept. chair. “As a teaching facility, we offer high levels of care to each and every patient who walks through our door. By expanding access to Medicaid recipients, we are bridging a gap and enhancing access.”
Services are by appointment and include:
-
Dental exams
-
Full range of comprehensive dental services, including extractions, restorations and much more. These services are provided by the staff dentist.
-
Full range of preventive dental hygiene services, including dental cleanings, periodontal therapy and more.
The college recently welcomed the addition of Dr. Bianca Ramirez, DMD, as its new staff dentist. Dr. Ramirez has experience in general and pediatric dentistry, having worked in El Paso, Las Cruces, Lordsburg and Deming. She has been an adjunct clinical faculty at NMSU/DACC Dental Programs.
