Dental School Access-To-Care Days Reach Needy

The first Access-To-Care Days at the University of Maryland Dental School provided free dental care to 114 uninsured, unemployed, and underserved people on July 24 and 25.

The program, co-sponsored by the L.D. Pankey Dental Foundation and the Dental School, was a collaboration of more than 100 community dentists, dental hygienists, dental and dental hygiene students, as well as a variety of nonmedical volunteers. Residents from the Helping Up Mission, My Sister's Place, and New Life for Girls were among the patients served at the event.
