(
EMAILWIRE.COM, May 23, 2016 ) Victoria, BC -- Academy Dental, the
largest dental organization in Victoria, gave back to the community on April 25, 2016, with a day of free dental services for Dentistry from the Heart 2016.
The free event, which took place from 8:00am-4:00pm at Academy Dental's Victoria and Sooke locations, welcomed both adults and children, and it was smiles all around.
Academy Dental is pleased to announce that with this year's event, they provided over $39,000 of free dental services, beating last year's total by more than $4,000.
Academy Dental believes in being a strong voice for community health. In Canada, dentistry falls outside of the Canada Health Act, which means many Canadians are unable to afford basic dental care. Academy Dental is pleased to be an annual participant in Dentistry from the Heart in an effort to help make
basic dental care accessible to everyone.
"I think it's a wonderful thing to do for the community", said Dr. Frank Van Gyn, the owner of Academy Dental. "It makes a big impact for people who can't afford to get dentistry done. It's a real feel-good day."
Dentistry from the Heart was started in 2001 by Florida dentist, Dr. Vincent J. Monticciolo. It's a worldwide nonprofit organization dedicated to providing
free dental care to those in need. Every year, thousands of individual dentists, hygienists, volunteers, and hundreds of practices across the world donate their time and resources to host their own
Dentistry from the Heart events.
It has grown into a world-class event with more than 300 events per year in the United States, Canada, Ireland, Australia, Puerto Rico, Hawaii, and New Zealand. Academy Dental is proud to help serve the community and once again bring Dentistry from the Heart to Victoria!
