GHA and UF Saving Smiles offer free dental care to housing residents through Friday

The Gainesville Housing Authority and the University of Florida’s Saving Smiles program have teamed up to provide no-cost dental services for residents 18 and under through June 12. Volunteers from UF’s College of Dentistry are bringing portable equipment directly to GHA properties to remove barriers around cost and transportation. Services include cleanings, exams, fluoride treatments, sealants, and hygiene instruction, available daily from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. at Eastwood Meadows on SE 43rd Street.
