John Greene* became a patient at GMCC in June 2020. He had not seen a dentist since 2002, partly due to being underinsured, but also because he suffers from moderate-severe anxiety. Because we re-opened our dental clinic in October 2020, we were able to provide dental services for John. He did very well during his initial dental appointment, which included x-rays and a treatment plan, since it had been such a long time since he was seen by a dentist. He has had two fillings and two extractions, and has one more appointment until his teeth/gums are healthy again. He smiles every time he sees one of our dental team members and we look forward to continuing his care.
Quote from John* about his experience with the GMCC dental clinic:
“The GMCC dental clinic has helped me by providing an affordable way to correct my oral health. It’s easier to brush and floss my teeth by having my wisdom teeth extracted. My bite seems to align better now since I don't grind my teeth at night by wearing a mouth guard. I have less pain from smoothing a chipped tooth and filling cavities. I am more proactive in taking care of my teeth now. I am so grateful for this opportunity and enjoyed my experience due to a caring, friendly staff.”
