Briefs: Free Day of Dentistry, Police Captain Promoted
Free Day of Dentistry
Dentists Raymond Epstein and Carlie Wager and their team at Little River Family Dental are offering free dental services to the Woodstock community Saturday, March 5, from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m.
“Now more than ever, there are people in Woodstock who need dental services but have no means to afford them — whether they’re out of a job or just don’t have dental insurance,” Wager said. “This event is a great opportunity for us to share our time and resources with those less fortunate and give back to the community we serve.”
At least 50 patients will be seen on a first-come, first-served basis at the office at 12201 Highway 92, Suite H. They will have a choice of a cleaning, a filling or an extraction.
“Our team is committed to lifetime dental care because good oral health is integral to overall health,” Epstein said. “By participating in this program, our goal is to engage patients and encourage them to adopt an ongoing oral care program and a lifelong regimen of preventative care.”
