SUMMARY:Texas Mission of Mercy (TMOM) Free Dental Clinic
DESCRIPTION:Press Release\nTexas Mission of Mercy\, Inc.\nBonham\, Texas\nApril 11th – 12th\, 2025\nFree Dental Clinic to Provide Needed Dental Services to Underserved Patients in and around Bonham\, Texas \nTexas Mission of Mercy (TMOM)\, a mobile dental clinic that delivers pain-relieving dental care at no cost to underserved Texans\, is coming to Bonham\, Texas on April 11th and 12th\, 2025. According to the American Dental Association\, many adults do not have access or qualify for programs that provide needed dental care\, which can lead to more serious health problems due to the untreated dental issues.\nTexas Mission of Mercy\, Inc. (TMOM) is working to address this need\, hosting 4 pop-up dental clinics across Texas each year. At each 2-day TMOM event\, organizers and volunteer dental professionals coordinate to provide appropriate dental care for patients in need. TMOM’s mission is to improve access to dental care to the underserved of Texas.\n“Our volunteer dental professionals’ primary focus is on relieving pain and preventing infection by providing extractions\, fillings\, and limited hygiene. These volunteers come from all over Texas and beyond to care for those in need\,” said Dr. Doug Bogan\, President of TMOM\, Inc. More than 50 volunteer dentists and 450 volunteers from the dental profession\, businesses\, and\ncommunity groups will provide charitable care to the community of Bonham and the surrounding areas. \nTMOM\, Inc. * 1946 S. IH 35 Ste. 400 * Austin\, Texas 78704 512-448-2441 * www.tmominc.org\nTMOM\, Inc. * 1946 S. IH 35 Ste. 400 * Austin\, Texas 78704 512-448-2441 * www.tmominc.org \nThe dental services\, which are free of cost to patients\, include basic\, pain-relieving\, and preventive\nprocedures such as fillings and extractions. TMOM will be taking walk up patients on a first-come\, first-serve basis. Patients are encouraged to show up early in the morning on Friday\, April 11th or Saturday\, April 12th at the Fannin County Multi-Purpose Complex. Anyone aged 8 and up is welcome. Patients under 17 years old must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian. \nTMOM will host two Pre-Screen events to assess patients’ needs ahead of the main event. A Pre-Screen is an initial evaluation where patients receive basic health and dental screenings to determine their treatment needs\, ensure they meet event criteria\, and prioritize care plans. This process helps streamline event-day operations by identifying necessary resources\, scheduling procedures efficiently\, and enhancing the experience for both patients and volunteers. \nPre-Screen Details (By Appointment Only):\nFirst Pre-Screen at Bonham Specialty Clinic: March 21st\, 9:00 AM – 3:00 PM\nSecond Pre-Screen at Bonham Specialty Clinic: April 4th\, 9:00 AM – 3:00 PM \nTo register\, please visit bit.ly/bonham-prescreen.\nPlease note: Attending a Pre-Screen is not required to receive treatment at the event.\nTMOM anticipates many people will show up for this free dental service. We encourage patients to arrive as early as 5:30 AM and expect a long day. Patients should bring a list of their\nmedications. Food and drinks will be provided for those waiting for dental care. TMOM is a program of Texas Mission of Mercy\, Inc. and is supported by the Texas Dental Association\nSmiles Foundation and the Texas Dental Association. Since 2001\, TMOM\, Inc. has held 93 missions events throughout Texas\, providing care to more than 55\,000 patients.\nFor information or to volunteer\, please visit www.tmominc.org.
