No service list has been published for this clinic, so the range here is worth asking about directly rather than assuming. The routine work — examinations, cleanings, X-rays, fillings, extractions — is normally available. Whether root canals, dentures and surgery are done on site is what differs from clinic to clinic.
What you pay here is worked out from your household income and family size, not read off a price list. Because Spectra Health sets the thresholds itself, the same household can pay different amounts at two different health centers. Ask for your band in writing before agreeing to a course of treatment. Our guide to applying for the discount lists the documents to bring.
No Medicaid registration has been recorded for this clinic, which is not the same as Medicaid being refused. Adult dental coverage under North Dakota Medicaid is decided at state level and has changed more than once in most states; children’s dental coverage is required everywhere. The Medicaid dental page covers how to check yours.

The published number is 701-757-2100. Where an organization runs several sites this often lands at a central desk, so name the clinic and say the appointment is dental.
The call is worth making for: the dental hours, and which days appointments run, whether new dental patients are being taken, and the current wait, what a first visit costs, before and after any discount, whether your insurance or Medicaid dental plan is accepted, by plan name, and what to bring for the sliding fee application.
Dental hours are frequently shorter than the hours posted for the health center as a whole, and they are not published in a form we can confirm for this clinic. Ask for the dental schedule specifically rather than the center’s.
Ask, because the answer changes what the visit costs. Talking it through, longer appointments and numbing gel before the injection are usually free; sedation is a billed extra and does not always fall inside the discount. Our guide to dental anxiety and what it costs covers what to ask for.
Commonly yes, at least the discounted portion, and some clinics ask for it before treatment rather than after. Ask what is due at the first visit, because a discount determination and the first appointment are sometimes separate visits.
Many health centers do dentures, and the discount can make them dramatically cheaper than private practice. The catch is laboratory costs, which are often billed on top of the discounted fee and are the bulk of the price. Ask for the total including laboratory work.
If you share a household, generally yes, and household size counts in your favor at the same time — the scale reads income against the number of people it supports. Say who lives with you and who depends on that income, rather than giving a single figure and letting them assume.
Yes, this site operates under the federal Health Center Program, which is what obliges it to discount by household income and to see patients regardless of ability to pay. It does not make the care free, and it does not decide which treatments are offered here.
Spectra Health operates one other clinic elsewhere in North Dakota. A central scheduling line can often say which of them has the shortest wait, and it is not always the nearest one. A sliding fee determination made at one of its clinics commonly carries across to the others, so income documents may not need providing twice. What is treated at one site is no guide to another, so confirm with the clinic you actually intend to visit.
Distances are straight-line, not driving. Waiting times differ sharply between neighbors, so call more than one.
Confirm current dental services, appointment availability, costs and accepted insurance directly with the clinic.
