Social Dentist: Who Qualifies and What You Get

Learn how to access capped prices for basic dental procedures if you are low income, elderly, or pregnant in Italy.

The Social Dentist scheme provides access to dental care at reduced, capped prices for specific groups of people.

Who it's for

This scheme is designed for individuals who fall into specific categories: those with a low income, elderly citizens, or pregnant women.

What you get

You can access basic dental procedures at capped prices, which helps make essential oral healthcare more affordable.

What it costs you

To qualify for these rates, you must provide your ISEE certification. This is an official document used in Italy to measure your economic situation and household wealth.

How to apply

  1. Obtain your ISEE certification to prove your eligibility.
  2. Visit the official ministry website to find a participating dentist.
  3. Book an appointment with a provider from the approved list.
