The Greater Prince William Community Health Center is partnering with the Virginia Health Care Foundation to offer three homeless dental clinics at the Evergreen Health Center in Manassas.
The three clinics will take place on April 18, May 16, and June 20.
“Everybody thinks of dental care as a luxury item, but it is essential to good health,” said Health Center Board of Directors President Paul Moessner, in a release.
In addition to the dental services being provided, local organizations like SERVE will work to help identify the homeless individuals that need services, and help them get transportation to the clinics.
During last year’s free dental clinics, more than 17 patients were seen, and were able to provide cleanings, X-rays, extractions and fillings.
According to a release, these services are valued at more than $12,000.
