You can find a list of dental clinics in Idaho by clicking here.  I also typed out the complete list below.  

 

Each has a brief description of their services and patient eligibility.

 

My personal recommendation would be for you to contact the closest to you and inquire about what services and pricing they can offer you. Some offer free services, some take Medicaid while others offer a sliding scale of payment for services.

 

Additionally, I have included information about free dental care for children in Idaho, even though the primary focus of this site is to care for seniors.

 

The following is a list of Dental Clinics that serve Idahoans in need.
