“People are very happy and our staff is very happy to give the time and by the end day we’re all going to be really tired but we’re all going to be really happy,” said Dr. Jerry Baluta, head dentist at Odyssey Dental Care.
The patients were all excited and thankful to receive the free care, continued Baluta.
It’s a good feeling to help and do something that’s a little bit outside the box for us,” he said.
Each patient got a check-up with a dentist, a cleaning and a take-home oral healthcare kit.
