Plainfield, IN._ – Thirty-three Plainfield-area people received free dental services from Dental Care at Plainfield on Saturday, November 4 as part of Free Dentistry Day. Dr. Katherine Boehm, Dr. Anna Jouravlev and team provided free oral health care to the community during Free Dentistry Day, a program initiated to provide dental care to the growing number of Americans without dental insurance. The doctors and team members provided over $10,800 worth of dentistry, including free cleanings, fillings and extractions to local people throughout the day. “We are very pleased with the success of this event,” said Dr. Boehm. “Unfortunately, many people do not see a dentist on a routine basis. We were honored to open our doors to those in our community and volunteer our time and resources to make sure they received the care they need and deserve.” The team of Dental Care at Plainfield Crossing would like to thank all of the dedicated volunteers for joining the team and donating their services to help throughout the day. One third of Americans are living without dental insurance and current economic conditions leave little room to afford dental procedures. Without events like Free Dentistry Day, dental care simply isn’t an option for many uninsured people. Each year, thousands of patients are given free dental care, with millions of dollars in free dentistry provided by dentists and their teams at Free Dentistry Day events nationwide. ABOUT DENTAL CARE AT PLAINFIELD CROSSING Dr. Boehm, Dr. Jouravlev and team are proud to serve the Plainfield community, providing first-class general, cosmetic and restorative dentistry and outstanding patient service.
