Augusta Regional Dental Clinic, Inc.

We are honored to be featured in a recent Public Health Watch article highlighting the growing impact of telehealth in expanding access to mental health care across Virginia.

As a partner of the Virginia Telemental Health Initiative (VTMHI), Augusta Regional Dental Clinic has referred more than 200 patients for free virtual counseling services since joining the program in 2024.

Many of our patients face significant barriers to care, including lack of insurance, transportation challenges, language barriers, and the rising cost of healthcare. Through this partnership, patients can connect with licensed mental health professionals from the privacy of their homes or from a dedicated counseling space at our clinic.

Mental health is an essential part of overall health, and we are grateful to be able to offer this important resource alongside our dental services.

Their investment in our dental workforce and their support of our Center for Inclusive Dentistry program have helped us provide high-quality, compassionate care to thousands of patients, including individuals living with disabilities and other barriers to care.

Thank you for believing in our mission and for standing alongside us as we work to ensure that everyone in our community has access to the dental care they deserve. We are proud to partner with you and grateful for your continued support.
