SOUTHLAKE, Texas– Dentistry with a Heart, Huckabee Dental’s gift of a free day of dentistry, will be held:

Friday, February 12, 2010

7:00 AM until 4:30 PM

Huckabee Dental 505 West Southlake Boulevard

Southlake, Texas 76092

Dr. Huckabee’s experienced team of dentists and hygienists will provide free fillings, extractions, and cleanings to the first 200 people, aged 18 and up who visit the Southlake practice. The 2010 event is the second annual “Dentistry with a Heart” public service for Dr. Huckabee’s practice. This year, the event has grown to include other host offices throughout Dallas. At other similar events hosted throughout the country, people begin lining up in the parking lot the night before. “2009 has been a very difficult year economically for many people says Dr. Huckabee. We want to build upon the success we began with 2009 program and provide this much needed service to our community and areas that surround Southlake for patients who can’t afford dental services. Many people neglect dental health, especially when economic times.”

In February 2009, Huckabee Dental’s Dentistry with a Heart initiative provided more than $60,000.00 worth of service to patients including extractions, cleanings, fillings and supplies. The 2010 effort is expected to grow. “In 2009 we learned many lessons about how to be even better. We are preparing staff to see more patients and have asked more dentists to participate,” Huckabee says. “Our intent is to see as many people as we can without reservation, that’s the heart of the event—opening our hearts and serving those in need.”

Dr. Huckabee and his team will do whatever they can on February 12 to relieve pain and fix problems. “Patients who need ongoing care or who have problems that cannot be fixed in one day are referred to community clinics, where they can receive ongoing treatment at low or no cost,” Dr. Huckabee says.

Dentistry with a Heart happens just one day a year and was started in 2005 by Dr. Vincent Monticciolo in New Port Richey, Florida. The program has grown and dentists throughout the U.S. are participating in this day-long event to provide dental care to those who cannot afford to pay. On the other days, Huckabee Dental is a successful dental practice offering a full range of dental procedures including one-day crowns, IV and oral sedation, Invisalign, dental implants, periodontal treatment, and cosmetic and family dentistry.
