This week Dr. Greg Davis talks with UK Dental Students Ellen Vice and Morgan Murrell about a special "Give Kids A Smile" event this Saturday at UK Dentistry at Turfland. Free oral health screenings will be available for kids and young adults from 8 a.m. to noon. The aim is to teach and reinforce good oral health habits at an early age. Ellen and Morgan say the open house is especially for members of Lexington's underserved population.
The University of Kentucky College of Dentistry, along with the American Dental Association will be hosting a nation wide event, Give Kids A Smile. This event will provide FREE dental cleanings for children aged 6 months-18 years old.
Additionally, free school dental screenings for the 2017-2018 school year will be provided. School dental screenings are required by law for children aged 5 or 6 enrolling in public schools in Kentucky during the 2017-2018 school year.
