Dental hygiene students and local dentists will provide dental care, free of charge, to economically disadvantaged children, ages 5 to 12.

Because of pandemic restrictions, only 30 slots will be available this year. Children from San Juan County are eligible to receive services.

The American Dental Association sponsors this event nationally on an annual basis and the Northwest District Dental Society is sponsoring it locally.

To make an appointment, call the San Juan College Dental Hygiene Program at (505) 566-3126. Walk-ins will not be seen. Children must be accompanied by their parent or guardian.
