JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – Tropea Dental Care at the St. Johns Town Center next to Publix is hosting a free dental day on Saturday, Oct. 19. The event will start at 8 a.m. and run until 2 p.m.

Monford and the team at Tropea Dental Care will be giving back to the community as part of “Free Dentistry Day,” a day dedicated to providing free dental care to the growing number of Americans without dental insurance.

“Some don’t understand the importance of dental health or have delayed routine check-ups over the last several years due to the pandemic, but more often than not, they don’t have the financial means,” said Monford.

Insurance is not required to receive treatment on Free Dentistry Day and patients will be accepted either by appointment or on a first-come, first-served basis.

Please call the office in advance to schedule your appointment. For more information, please call 904-800-5692 or click here.

The office will offer one free extraction to the first 50 patients.

“Free Dentistry Day is one of my favorite days of the year. It’s very gratifying to see the impact that events like Free Dentistry Day can have on a person’s overall physical and mental health. While we’re changing their life, they’re changing ours too, and it’s a day for everyone to smile.” said Dr. Monford.
