Free Dental Services This Week

TYLER – Free dental service is being provided this week at Tyler Junior college. Operation East Texas is a free dental, medical and vision outreach. It will run Monday through Friday at the Rogers Nursing & Health Sciences Center on East 5th Street on the TJC Campus. Services available will include limited dental services, including basic fillings and extractions, cleanings and sealants as well as medical and vision screenings. You need to bring a current list of medications and daily supplement bottles with you. All patients must be screened, and the number of screenings per day is limited. Treatment is prioritized by severity, and all patients will be seen by an on-site medical provider prior to receiving dental treatment.

This is the third annual Operation East Texas event, a collaboration between TJC Dental Studies and Vocational Nursing, Texas A&M College of Dentistry, UT Health Science Center at Tyler, UT Tyler Nursing and Pharmacy, and the Tyler Lion’s Club.
