Children show their pearly whites for dental day March 18, 2026

The 55th Dental Squadron held a free dental day for dependent children of service members March 6, 2026, at the Ehrling Bergquist Clinic. The Children's Dental Day event enabled dental residents to gain valuable experience for treating pediatric patients. Dental treatment included dental exams, fluoride treatments, cleanings, and x-rays to determine if additional dental treatment could be needed. The dental squadron holds this event as part of a community outreach initiative with the goal of encouraging young children to properly care for their pearly whites.
