Missions of Mercy

2010 Oregon Mission of Mercy - Watch a Video

Our doctors, hygienists and dental assistants were part of 1,200 volunteers for Missions of Mercy, a 3 day free dental clinic held once per year in November. Missions of Mercy is a dental clinic with portable dental stations set up in a large public arena. All who volunteered expressed how fortunate they felt to help their local community. Patients are seen first come, first served and the 100-chair clinic can handle about 1,000 patients per day.

The amount of people who came wanting dental treatment was great; our staff hopes to participate each year that MIssions of Mercy is held.
