At Pollard Family Dentistry, the health and happiness of our community is important and we know the importance of volunteering and outreach. Below are some of the ways our doctors have been helping our community.
The Iowa Mission of Mercy is a large scale, two-day community dental clinic where dental professionals and general volunteers donate their time to provide free oral health care to individuals who face barriers to receiving dental care.
During February, Childrens Dental Health Month, we hold Give Kids a Smile Day. On this day, our staff donates all of their time and supplies to treating uninsured or under-insured children in need of dental care.
