The Newport Branch Dental Clinic provides dental care to
shorebased Navy and Marine Corps personnel and other authorized beneficiaries in
the Narragansett Bay area. The clinic is located across the street
from the Commissary Store and has an annex clinic at the Naval War
College. Dental specialities available include restorative dentistry,
periodontics, oral surgery, prosthodontics and endodontics.
Treatment and
routine dental examinations for active duty personnel are provided by
appointment. Treatment for active duty family members and retirees
not enrolled in the United Concordia or Family Member Dental Plan is on a space
available basis. Dental emergencies will be treated at any
time. To expedite treatment after hours, patients should contact the
clinic to let the duty section know when they expect to arrive.
All
active duty Navy and Marine Corps personnel are enrolled in a dental review
program when they check in with the dental clinic. They will be
notified through their chain of command when they are due for their annual
dental examinations.
