Fox Valley dentists offer free dental care in February
Open up - and smile. Several Fox Valley-area dentists will offer free dental services throughout the month of February.
The Dentist With a Heart program participants offer services including: cleaning, fillings, X-rays, diagnostic services, and extractions, unless otherwise noted. Offices are located in the Tri-Cities area and in Elgin and Dundee Township.
The participants do not offer more involved services such as crowns, bridges, root canals and dentures. Services are limited to patients age 3 and older; patients younger than 18 must be accompanied by an adult. There are no eligibility requirements.
Most offices take patients on a first-come, first-serve basis. Those who take patients by appointment only are noted.
