On Sunday July 20, 2014, the first annual free adult dental day – called Dentistry from the Heart - took place at the offices of Sheppard Village Dental - #208, 4651 Sheppard Avenue East, at McCowan.
Over 60 patients were treated, at no cost, by 25 volunteers who coordinated and performed extractions, fillings and cleanings, as required.
In all, over $16,000 of required dental services and procedures were provided at no charge.
Dr. Malkit Brach stated: “we have been blessed with the support of the Scarborough community for over 25 years and my team and I feel very fortunate to have the opportunity to give back. We look forward to doing it again next year.
Congratulations to Dr. Brach and his colleagues – for starting an outstanding community service program in our Sheppard East Village neighbourhood.
