Ryan White Dental Program
Reducing barriers to high-quality oral health care for people living with HIV/AIDS
Inadequate dental care can predispose people with HIV to oral health problems including cavities, gum problems and oral lesions.* For the last 20+ years, UofL has helped to address these issues in partnership with the federal government and the Commonwealth of Kentucky.
Who’s eligible
Participants must be HIV positive, a resident of our service area (Kentucky and emerging communities in Southern Indiana) and actively enrolled in medical case management services with Ryan White Program Louisville.
We're looking for partner providers
Interested in helping the UofL School of Dentistry offer comprehensive oral health care programs for individuals living with HIV/AIDS?
