Free dental care offered this weekend

Comfort Dental in Colorado Springs is hosting its 33 rd annual Care Day Saturday, December 24, 2016, and offering free dental care.

Dental services from cleanings to extractions will be provided on a first-come, first-served basis for any patient who comes to any Comfort Dental location across the country.

Nationally, approximately 300 Comfort Dental dentists and 1,300 staff members donate their time on Care Day.

Last year on Care Day, Comfort Dental offices saw 4,000 patients nationally, and gave away $1.4 million in free dental services. Since Care Day’s beginnings in 1984, Comfort Dental has given away over $21.4 million in dental services.

Comfort Dental president and founder, Dr. Rick Kushner, says, “For some people, including kids, Care Day might be the only time they see a dentist all year. We’re dentists, so we give away dental services for the holidays.”
