Amador County – The Jackson Creek Dental Group announced that it will once again open its office for no-cost treatment of children who “fall between the cracks” in healthcare, who would not otherwise receive dental treatment.

The “Smiles for Kids 2011” is set for 8 a.m. to noon Saturday, Jan. 22. Doctors and their staff have provided this service to the community on a volunteer basis for the past 26 years, said Dr. Ron Ask. Patients who meet the criteria will be seen on a first-come, first-served basis.

To qualify for treatment, children must be 2-18 years of age, qualify for free or reduced fee school lunches, WIC or CHDP, be a resident of Amador or Calaveras County, and they must not be covered by private dental insurance. A parent or legal guardian must accompany the child throughout the appointment.
