For dentists and dental students thinking about what comes next in their careers, the Georgia Board of Health Care Workforce offers loan repayment programs that can help reduce educational debt while supporting access to dental care in rural Georgia.

Through the Dentists for Rural Areas Assistance Program (DRAA), licensed dentists may receive up to $25,000 per year in service-cancelable loan repayment to help repay outstanding dental education debt.

The Georgia Dentist Education Loan Repayment Program (GDELRP) offers up to $150,000 over four years to licensed dentists and fourth-year dental students to assist with outstanding dental education loan debt.

These programs support professionals who commit to practicing full-time in an eligible underserved, rural Georgia county.

For dental professionals looking to serve where they can make a difference while receiving help with educational debt, rural Georgia may be worth considering.
