UPDATE: Finding affordable dental care for children can be a challenge. To help with this, the Nevada Health Centers Mobile Dental Services program will visit Carson City this coming week by offering Mobile Dental Services to students and children, newborn to 21-years-old.
The mobile office is fully staffed with dentists and assistants and will offer full dental services including exams, cleanings, X-rays, sealants, extractions, restorative services, fillings and oral health education.
The dental services will be provided to children with or without dental insurance coverage. Private insurance, Medicaid and Nevada Check Up are accepted. Children without dental insurance will be supported through generous community grants.
The mobile program will be at:
Carson High School, Tuesday, Oct. 8, from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Empire Elementary School, Wednesday and Thursday, Oct. 9 and 10 from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Friday, Oct. 11, from 7 a.m. to 12 noon.
To schedule an appointment or for more information, please call 800-787-2568. A parent will need to be present in order for their child to receive care.
