Texas Mission of Mercy Dental Clinic

CHRISTUS St. Michael Health System, in conjunction with Texas Dental Association Smiles Foundation (TDASF), hosted a Texas Mission of Mercy (TMOM) Mobile Dental Clinic to deliver pain-relieving dental care at no cost to underserved Texarkana-area residents on June 17-18.  The event was held at Texas High School Tiger Gym with more than 25 volunteer dentists and 150 volunteers from the dental profession, partner businesses, hospital associates and community groups providing charitable care to hundreds of people. The services, which are free of cost, included basic, pain-relieving and preventive procedures such as dental cleanings, fillings, and extractions.
