In the recent Picayune School District Board Meeting held on Wednesday, representatives from MHS Mobile Dental presented a proposition to collaborate with the school district. The objective is to extend essential preventative dental care to children who lack adequate access or insurance coverage for regular check-ups.
Chris Martin, Operations Director, and Mike Murphy, Executive Director, led the presentation on behalf of MHS Mobile Dental. The organization promotes oral health excellence and delivers preventative dental care to patients in non-traditional settings, utilizing mobile and portable equipment.
The services offered by MHS Mobile Dental include examinations, sealants, digital X-rays, teeth cleaning, fluoride applications, and referrals to a dental home, ensuring comprehensive care for the children.
MHS Mobile Dental collaborates with state-licensed dentists to provide safe and high-quality preventative oral healthcare to Mississippi’s underprivileged children. Many of these dentists also work in other dental clinics throughout the state, showcasing their dedication to improving dental access for those in need.
