The Oral Health International Foundation Provides Support to Footbridge, Inc. to Help Hurricane Victims
Since 2019, Footbridge has been instrumental in providing free dental clinics in North Carolina. Recently, they held a free dental clinic in Spruce Pine, NC, for local individuals still recovering from the devastating effects of Hurricane Helene. During this dental clinic, 261 patients were served, and 129 individuals volunteered their time and talents. During the clinics, patients received a range of services, from standard cleanings to in-depth procedures such as root canals and crowns.
"Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Because of your work, I no longer feel afraid to proceed with the care I so desperately need. You have really changed the way I view a true dental professional. There was no shaming whatsoever; there was no one there that I felt bullied by. I was treated as a human being with feelings and concerns, and those feelings and concerns were addressed in a caring and professional manner. Thank you so very much!"
