Free Day of Dentistry for Patients In Need
Cary, NC – This Saturday, Cary Family Dental is holding their 4th annual Dentistry from the Heart – free fillings, extractions, cleanings and more for people who cannot afford a visit to the dentist.
Since 2012, Cary Family Dental has held Dentistry From The Heart at their offices with more patients arriving every year. Last year, 180 people who otherwise could not afford treatment had procedures including cleaning, fillings and tooth removal, all for free. Patients must be 18 years or older.
The event brings in dentists from around the Triangle, and some from outside the state. The estimated amount of services provided since the event started in 2012 is $150,000 in dental care, including more than $46,000 its first year.
More than 50 volunteers helped at Dentistry From The Heart last year. Sign up to be volunteer for 2016.
Get There Early!
This year’s Dentistry From The Heart is Saturday, April 23, 2016. Organizers recommend anyone seeking dental care arrive at their offices early. In 2015, over 40 people camped out in the office parking lot overnight. Others arrived between 3-5 AM. Additional details from Cary Family Dental:
No parking will be available the practice. Patients should provide their own transportation and find appropriate parking. Also, check out the weather beforehand and dress appropriately since patients will be waiting outside until they can be seen by one of our team members.
