The Florida Dental Association (FDA) Foundation will host its eighth Florida Mission of Mercy (FMM) event, from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., February 24 and 25, at the Expo Center at the South Florida Fairgrounds, in West Palm Beach. The event will provide an estimated 2,000 Floridians with relief from the pain and infection of untreated dental disease—at no cost.

This two-day event will deliver professional dental care on a first-come, first-served basis; patients are advised to arrive early. This year will feature a ticketing system to ensure patients are not left standing in line. All patients and volunteers are required to wear masks except when directly receiving screening and treatment.

Services provided at this year’s FMM include cleanings, fillings, extractions, pediatric dentistry, root canals, and a limited number of dentures and partials. A Veterans First initiative lets local veterans pre-register at the website to receive priority care.

The FMM provides professional dental care at no cost to thousands of patients through the support of FDA member dentists, community volunteers, and charitable benefactors.

Location: 9067 Southern Blvd., West Palm Beach. For more information and Veterans First initiative (Veterans Dental Event), visit flamom.org.
