In their continuing effort to provide free dental services to adults and children who cannot afford dental services, the Dental Care Group and Dental Care Group Kids once again celebrated “Dentistry From Our Hearts” on Sunday, February 9. They know that good oral health has many wonderful life-changing benefits…benefits that those less fortunate would not normally receive. The doctors at Dental Care Group understand that dental disease can lead to difficulty eating, sleeping, paying attention and smiling.
On that one day, they provided free dentistry to over 300 patients and $150,000 in services to people who could not afford dental care. Services provided that day included cleanings, fillings and extractions. Dr. Rick Mars, partner at Dental Care Group, said after the event that anyone that participated in the event will have a different appreciation about life, and gave thanks to his team and sponsors. He is already thinking about next year’s ten-year anniversary of this event. “Next year we will be giving away a grand total of $1,500,000 over a ten-year span in free dentistry in South Florida. Our goal next year is to get three other dental offices to do what we do to ensure that even more low-income patients will be served.”
The Dental Care Group office in Aventura and Dental Care Group Kids offices are located at 2797 NE 207th Street, Aventura 33180 and Pembroke Pines office is at 12634 Pines Blvd., Pembroke Pines 33028.
