What do ice and snow and a winnebago have in common? Nothing!!


Ice and snow and a dental office on wheels do not mix! The mobile dental unit is on its way to Woodward today for an event coordinated by Dr. Teri White. Thank you Dr. White and staff for putting all the hard work into serving your community. Hopefully the Winnebago can get back to OKC and tucked into its warm storage place late tonight before the next winter storm hits.

Remember you can see all of our volunteer opportunities from Volunteer Squared. And if, like Dr. White, you have something specific in mind for your community, just give us a call at 405-241-1299 to talk it over.

Hope to see many of you at the Oklahoma Mission of Mercy on February 5&6!

New Year, new stuff

Can I just say I get excited about things like new tires on the Mobile Dental Van? Having a flat tire in the dark, in the middle of the countryside does not make me a happy camper. So the gift of four new tires makes me happy!! We also got a new radio the replace the one that got fried for some unknown reason, a new arrangement up front in the "reception" area, a new computer, and, tah dah! A Nomad portable x-ray unit. Many thanks to Delta Dental of Oklahoma for funding those much-needed improvements.

It's because of your support and volunteerism plus the funding from Delta Dental that we were able to see exponentially more patients in the last four months of 2009. Look at these numbers!
