Free Dental Services for Children to be Offered Feb. 1

Eastern Dental, a dental practice with 21 offices throughout New Jersey including Lawrence, Hamilton and Ewing, will help observe February as National Dental Health Month by participating in the “Give Kids a Smile" program sponsored by the American Dental Association and the New Jersey Dental Association.

As part of that program, on Friday, Feb. 1, all Eastern Dental locations will offer free dental care to underprivileged children between the ages of 4 and 12 whose families cannot afford dental services.

Appointments are required and no “walk-ins” can be accepted. Parents/guardians must be present with their children during the appointments.

If your child is without insurance or is a NJ FamilyCare recipient, call Eastern Dental toll-free at 1-800-982-5529 to schedule an appointment for your child.

• Eastern Dental of Lawrenceville, 520 Lawrence Square Blvd. South, Lawrence Township
