Dentists & Hygienists Needed

Help fight the "neglected epidemic" in children. County data indicates that 25 percent of children in kindergarten through sixth grade in selected schools in East and West County had obvious tooth decay. In 1999, dental screening of low-income pre- schoolers identified 42 percent with obvious decay, up from 37 percent in 1998. Help meet the county's long-term goal of insuring that every child by age eight has a dental screening, including teeth cleaning and dental sealants in order to prevent disease. Join us in providing preventive treatment services to eligible children. Clinics are held Monday through Saturday at various locations. All supplies and equipment are provided. Must be California licensed and carry malpractice insure.

Email or call Lynn Pilant at 925-313-6163 for more information.
