Center for Dental Excellence to host Dentistry from the Heart event on Friday

Dentistry from the Heart will be teaming up with The Center for Dental Excellence in Flossmoor to “spread free smiles” to area residents who often cannot afford dental care.

This will be the seventh annual Dentistry from the Heart event hosted by CDE. It will take place from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. at 19615 Governors Highway.

Staff will see patients on a first-come, first-served basis and will provide cleaning, filling or extraction services for anyone age 18 and older. 

Dentistry from the Heart was started in 2001 by a Florida dentist as a way to give back to the community and to provide quality dental care to the growing number of Americans without dental insurance. 

The program now includes more than 300 annual events around the world. More than 500,000 people have been served.
