At least 50 undeserved children from Mini University and Montgomery County Child Development Centers (Head Start) will be treated during the event.
John said the first part of the day is filled.
“From 1 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. we are going to take walk-ins,” she said.
The clinic is focused on underserved children, but John said any child younger than 18 is welcome regardless of their parent’s income.
Services being offered include cleanings, fluoride, dental exams and referrals to a dentist if necessary.
