Five Texas dental homes are proud to announce that they will join parent company, Benevis, a leading dental healthcare and orthodontics delivery organization committed to providing quality care to underserved communities, for its 10th annual Sharing Smiles Day on Sunday, May 18, 2025. The care team and administrative members will volunteer their time to provide free dental care to children and their families with little to no insurance in the areas of Longview, McAllen, Odessa, Sherman, and Waco. Families in need of dental exams, limited emergency care, extractions, and restorative care, with cleanings offered on a limited basis, are encouraged to register in advance at www.SharingSmilesDay.com.
Since the first Sharing Smiles Day nine years ago, Benevis has provided dental relief that has positively impacted more than 3,400 patients across 13 states and the District of Columbia thanks to the dedication of over 1,200 volunteers. The event has helped break down barriers to care that influence children and their family’s ability to access dependable oral healthcare.
“At our dental homes, we believe everyone deserves an equal opportunity to have a healthy smile, no matter their circumstances,” said Dr. Lucian Narita, Regional Dental Director, Benevis. “Our dedicated clinical and administrative teams are proud to volunteer their time and talents through Sharing Smiles Day on May 18, 2025, delivering essential dental care at no cost to children and adults in five Texas communities, while also educating families on the importance of healthy dental habits.”
