FREE DENTAL CARE COMING TO ORTING

By: Kim Farnes November 10, 2009

Communities in Schools of Orting (CISO) in partnership with Medical Teams International (MTI) and the Orting school district provided free dental care to several Orting youth on Friday, November 6th.

Through the generosity of others at the CISO auction held in March, enough funds were raised to offer free dental care to 20 Orting youth. This assistance will help our youth focus more on thier school work and less on their dental pain. Orting's own Dr. James Duffin, D.D.S. volunteered his time to ensure that the youth had high quality care while visiting the dental van.

The Medical Teams International van will be back on December 4th. If you or someone you know needs dental care, please call the CISO office right away. To qualify for an appointment, you must be between 3 - 18 years old, have no dental insurance or medicaid and live in, and/or go to school in Orting.
