The program and amount of accepted applicants will be dependent on the funding for the year.
An additional screening date may be added if the need is great.
Applicants are selected by case severity, motivation of the patient and guardian, reliable
transportation, routine dental check-ups and the oral hygiene history, to name a few. We want the
best results possible for the patient and thus place emphasis on these items. The unbiased
selection process is performed under the guidance of an orthodontic specialist and chosen
through a committee.
This program is open to all ages who are PRC-eligible only. To be eligible for the 2020 program
year, you must complete a screening appointment during one of the screening days. Each year’s
selection process is independent from previous years and does not carry over. Selected and
treated individuals can only be selected once for the duration of the program. All applicants will
be notified by mail if they have been chosen.
Please contact the Siletz Dental Clinic, 541-444-9681, to schedule an appointment. Individuals
who have been placed on the waiting list will receive a postcard notifying them to call and
schedule an appointment.
