All patients will receive preventive dental education and instructions on how to properly maintain their oral health.

Nonprofit Will Provide: 

Volunteers are invited to join us in the hospitality break area to enjoy free breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Coffee, drinks, and snacks are available throughout the clinic days thanks to the hard work of the hospitality team and generous donors. Unfortunately, we are not able to accommodate special dietary needs, so please plan accordingly. Everyone should plan to eat or drink in the designated volunteer break area. Only closed drink containers are allowed on the clinic floor.

Volunteers are also invited to schedule a well-deserved massage during the clinic days from a team of licensed massage therapists who are donating their time to serve our volunteers.
