FREE Dental Care Clinics!

The “Dentistry from the Heart” event is scheduled for Friday, Oct. 9 and Thursday, Oct. 15, all day. It provides cleanings, fillings and extractions for free. Dr. Brad Richtsmeier of Lifepoint Dental Partners said this year the event has been expanded to a second location.  You can now stop by the West Des Moines office at 1903 EP True Parkway or in Des Moines at 3311 Southwest 9th Street Suite 200. It’s free, for all ages and you don’t need any insurance information. The free clinic is open at 7 a.m. and runs until about 4 p.m.  Get there early, Richtsmeier advises. Another Des Moines metro dentist is also holding a Dentistry from the Heart event. Dr. Randall Ruisch is holding his event on Oct. 15 at his office at 1000 73rd Street Suite 1 in Des Moines.
