The first-ever Dentistry Has Heart event at the Renfrew Office for the chain was a resounding success, according to Hygienist Raelyn Warren.
Sixty-nine people came out for the free treatments Saturday at the Dentristry at Renfrew office. There were 117 x-rays taken, 43 restorations done and 33 extractions undertaken.
Raelyn says the team effort involved numerous staff- and went two hours longer than anticipated.
She says the experience of offering the free service was a humbling one, but it could not have happened without great support from the community.
The free program offered patients their choice of 2 extractions, 2 fillings, or a complete dental exam, all for free.
Value of the work performed was almost 40 thousand dollars.
