Walk-Ins Welcome!Wednesday, June 12, 2024
FoundCare is hosting a FREE DENTAL SCREENING DAY on WEDNESDAY, JUNE 12, in honor of National Oral Health Month. Open to adults and children, this free event will allow new dental patients to be screened by a dental professional who will look for signs of dental disease and other oral health concerns that could cause issues to your (or your children’s) overall health. Walk-ins are welcome!
Date: Wednesday, June 12, 2024
Time: 9:00 AM - 5:00 PM
Location: 2330 S. Congress Avenue Palm Springs, FL 33406
Walk-ins are welcome and served on a first-come, first-served basis.
What you will receive:
- A chance to speak to a dental professional about your oral health concerns for yourself or your children.
- Screening of the teeth and gums (caries and cancer risk assessment)
- Toothbrush kit and oral hygiene education
Patients who require a periodontal cleaning (deep cleaning), additional dental services, or referral services will have the option to schedule a comprehensive exam at FoundCare at a later date and will need to register as a new patient (service fees will apply). Appointment availability may be limited based on service demands. THIS IS ONLY A SCREENING NOT A COMPREHENSIVE EXAM.
FAQ
No, a dental screening is not the same as a dental exam. A typical dental exam includes a cleaning by a hygienist, x-rays on certain visits, and a checkup of your mouth by a dentist. A dental screening only includes a checkup. Both dentists and dental hygienists can perform oral screenings. These screenings are a great way to check the mouth and teeth for early detection of issues that could pose greater health issues if not corrected.
