Dentistry event

HUBBARD

Braydich Dental, 45 E. Liberty St., is hosting its fourth annual Dentistry From The Heart event from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. Friday when it offers free dental care for more than 200 residents.

Annually, the Braydich Dental team of dentists, staff, volunteers and sponsors provides Youngstown/Warren area patients with a free extraction, filling or cleaning on a “first come, first served” basis.

Because the patient will be seen on a “first come, first served” basis, Braydich Dental has asked local businesses for help providing food, tents for shelter, restrooms and designated parking for people who might be waiting a long time. This year, more than 25 local businesses and organizations have offered support through volunteering or donations.

For information, call Danielle at 330-534-3122.
