TOLEDO, Ohio — Free dental care will be available for area children whose families otherwise couldn't afford it through the 'Give Kids a Smile' program.
Over the past 18 years, dental professionals in Northwest Ohio have volunteered their time and talents to make sure all children have access to dental care.
Dental hygienists will provide simple teeth cleanings, fillings and tooth extractions for children up to 18 years of age.
Appointments this year will be offered on Friday, Sept. 24 and Monday, Sept. 27 from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. at four locations in the area.
