Affordable Braces for Everyone OF Worth, TX PROGRAM
THE AFFORDABLE BRACES FOR EVERYONE PROGRAM is free to apply for and is available to anyone that wishes to improve their oral health and return confidence to their smile.
To be eligible for consideration of a ABE Grant, an applicant simply needs to demonstrate that their mouth is healthy enough to support the type of cosmetic dentistry procedure they wish to receive. To determine suitability, you are provided with a free oral health assessment(x-ray charges may apply) by a participating Texas Licensed Dentist.
Following completion of your oral health assessment by the participating dentists, and presuming you are a good candidate for cosmetic procedure and implant, the dental practitioner will recommend you for inclusion in the ABE Program and provide you with a treatment plan that will help achieve your desired results.
Please note: The dentist will not compromise the function or health of your mouth to accommodate a cosmetic procedure. Accordingly, the dentist will advise in advance if you require any basic dentistry such as root canals, fillings, cleanings or extractions.

Awarding of ABE Grants
Partial Grants
Partial Grants are awarded to any qualified applicant on a per capita, percentile basis, distributed proportionally based on the number of applicants in the distribution pool, the value of their recommended treatment plan, and the amount of proceeds available for distribution.
Once becoming eligible for a partial grant, applicant’s must proceed with their cosmetic dentistry work with the dentist they were assigned to, or another participating dentist in the program. Should an applicant begin their cosmetic dentistry work with another dentist who is not a participating member of the ABE program, then ABE retains the right to revoke the partial grant from the applicant at any time.
Applicants who are awarded a Grant have 30 days to begin their treatment with their participating ABE dentist. Each applicant must submit a signed affidavit and thank you letter to the ABE office in order to confirm acceptance.
Credentialed Dentists may support the ABE Program by purchasing advocacy programs, or may assist by contributing their professional services or by agreeing to the discounted grant fee schedule.
