On Wednesday, March 13, 1st Family Dental hosted its first Free Dental Care Day for our neighbors in the Logan Square neighborhood of Chicago. People lined up as early as 4:30 AM to take advantage of free dental services being provided for the day. A great team of dentists and assistants rallied together and in total helped offer free treatment to over 100 patients. Routine services like exams, x-rays, cleanings, and extractions were provided free of charge.

Our neighbors at Marcello’s Father & Son Restaurant kept our staff well-fed by generously donating an amazing lunch spread. A huge thank-you to them. Also, thank you to Crest & Oral-B for donating free toothbrushes, toothpaste, and floss. And thanks to our friends at Miller Real Estate for offering overflow seating for patients and offering free coffee! We were also honored to have 35th Ward Alderman Rey Colon stop by as our special guest. It was truly a team effort to make the day possible — thank you to everyone who helped make it possible.
