Free Dental Exams
this Saturday!
Case Western Reserve University hosts annual free dental exam
day, Jan. 12
Is your New Year´s resolution to take better care of your
teeth? If so, you can get a start on it Saturday, Jan. 12, 2013
by visiting Cass Western Reserve University School of Dental
Medicine for a free dental exam, x-rays, cleaning and oral
cancer screening.
Visit the Case Western Reserve dental clinic for free dental
exams, which include X-rays and oral cleanings, between 9-11
a.m. The clinic is at 2123 Emergency Drive (Cornell Road and
Emergency Drive). All you need to do is call 216.368.0214 to
let the dental school know you are coming. If you are unable to
call, walk-ins on Saturday are also welcome.
Patients must be 18 years or older and cannot be a current
patient or have full dentures.
Students from the dental school´s student council organize the
day of service, known as “Prophy Day,” says council President
Adam Kaiser. Volunteer dental faculty and student dentists
provide the free services.
Depending on the type of
dental care needed, patients with certain dental needs may
qualify for additional free or extensively reduced services. Any
participant, who wants to become a regular dental school
patient, will receive a $10 voucher to help defray the admitting
cost during a follow-up visit to the clinic.
Faculty will oversee the
students as they perform exams. For information, 216.368.0214
weekdays between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m. Visit
www.dental.case.edu for details.
