The unit is a fully operational mobile dental office complete with digital x-ray equipment, <br />computer network, exam and procedure instruments, custom features and fixtures which will assist <br />volunteer dentists in performing comprehensive dental services to San Benito's neediest children. <br /> <br />Dental Services <br /> <br />Dentists will be able to provide oral examinations, radiographs, emergency dental care, oral health <br />education and preventive dentistry. The Mobile Dental Unit will be based on school campuses <br />during the school year and to areas of high poverty during the summer months. It is anticipated that <br />approximately 600 children per year will receive comprehensive dental examinations and/or <br />treatment. <br /> <br />Tar2et Population <br /> <br />Dentists Who Care will work primarily with the San Benito School District to identify low income <br />areas within the city. Once identified, the Mobile Clinic will be dispatched to low income <br />neighborhood elementary schools to provide dental services to low/mod identified children. <br />Specifically targeted will be children who have neither Medicaid, insurance or financial means to <br />obtain services. <br />
