Providence Dental Residency

Providence’s Spokane Dental Residency Clinic delivers compassionate dentistry for vulnerable and medically complex patients in Eastern Washington. Our program provides comprehensive care for patients with severe dental anxiety, mental or physical disabilities, or medical complexities.

Our Approach

Serving vulnerable and medically complex patients in Eastern Washington, the Providence Dental Residency Clinic is a collaboration of Providence, the Spokane dental community, the Washington state legislature and Delta Dental of Washington. Patients are treated in a modern office by expertly trained clinicians, including students completing their General Practice Residency program at Sacred Heart Medical Center.

Services include preventive and restorative dentistry, crowns and bridges, dentures, root canal therapy, periodontal treatment, implants and oral surgery. Pain and anxiety relief options include nitrous oxide and IV conscious sedation.

Clinic providers hold full dental surgical privileges at Sacred Heart Medical Center, so we can offer general anesthesia when needed in the hospital operating room, monitored by board-certified anesthesiologists. This helps us care for patients whose anxiety, disabilities or medical complexities make treatment in a standard office setting difficult.
