BANGOR — The University of Maine at Augusta Dental Health Clinic plans to host its annual Give Kids a Smile Day in partnership with the American Dental Association.

The event is set from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Friday, Feb. 23, at the UMA Dental Hygiene Clinic, located on UMA’s Bangor campus at 201 Texas Ave.

The clinic operates according to the American Dental Association and Maine CDC recommended safety requirements and precautions, according to a news release from UMaine Augusta.

Children ages 5-19, who do not have a dentist, can schedule free dental appointments to get cleanings, exams, x-rays, fluoride treatments, and dental hygiene education. Students from UMA’s Dental Hygiene programs will provide care with the aid of staff dentists, faculty members from UMA’s Dental Health Programs, and volunteer dentists from the community.
