Free Dental Services for Children to be Offered Feb. 1

In observance of February as National Dental Health Month, Eastern Dental - a dental practice with 21 offices throughout New Jersey, including 14 in Middlesex County - will participate in the "Give Kids a Smile" program.

Eastern Dental, a dental practice with 21 offices throughout New Jersey including New Brunswick, North Brunswick and East Brunswick, will help observe February as National Dental Health Month by participating in the “Give Kids a Smile" program sponsored by the American Dental Association and the New Jersey Dental Association.

As part of that program, on Friday, Feb. 1, all Eastern Dental locations will offer free dental care to underprivileged children between the ages of 4 and 12 whose families cannot afford dental services.

Appointments are required and no “walk-ins” can be accepted. Parents/guardians must be present with their children during the appointments.
