October is National Dental Hygiene Month. and Concorde Career Institute–Tampa is partnering with PDS Health and Liberty Dental Plan to provide no-cost dental care to children ages 4–17. This event is part of a nationwide initiative to honor the dental hygiene profession, and promote the importance of preventive care and access to oral health services for children and families.

All dental services are provided by Concorde Dental Hygiene students under the direct supervision of faculty and licensed dental professionals. PDS Health and Liberty Dental Plan are providing toothbrushes for all kids in attendance. Other activities include face painting and prize giveaways.

The event is open to the public. Cleaning appointments fill up quickly, and pre-registration is required. Sign up at https://concorde.fyi/Tampa-Smile.

No child will be turned away. If appointments on October 13 fill up, Concorde will work with families to schedule their children in the coming weeks during their regular Community Dental Hygiene Clinic hours.
