Mobile Dentist Begins Its Run For The Fall

Wednesday, December 18, 2024

The Mobile Dentist returned to Laurel Park Oct. 28 for the first of several visits planned for the fall. It is expected the service will be offered every three weeks.

This year, the return of the Mobile Dentist is made possible through a community grant from Anne Arundel County, which the MTHA successfully secured earlier this year. The grant is specifically designated to fund the Mobile Dentist’s visits. The focus will be on individuals residing in the dormitories within the Laurel stable area, which is located in Anne Arundel County.

To participate, individuals must complete the necessary registration paperwork in advance, as was required during the 2021-22 visits. Patients must contact  Diana Pinones (410-902-6842), who handles all registrations. The paperwork must be completed in advance of any visits.
