Underprivileged kids get free dentistry
Four hundred underprivileged Miami youngsters are set to receive free dental care thanks to Nova Southeastern University.
Pupils from three North Beach elementary schools will now be given free tooth-cleanings, fluoride sealant application and oral hygiene advice.
The treatment is being funded by a $58,141 grant which was given to the university’s (NSU) dental school by the Dr John T Macdonald Foundation.
According to NSU figures, more than 50 per cent of youngsters, that don’t have medical insurance, haven’t not seen a dentist in the past year.
All treatments will be performed dental staff at each school and students from NSU\'s North Miami Beach Dental Clinic.
