The Medical Teams International Mobile Dental Van in partnership with Fish for Teeth and San Juan County Health and Community Services is back in Friday Harbor on May 5-8. The van team is excited to announce that they will be providing NEW dental hygiene services (teeth cleaning) in addition to oral health exams, X-rays, fillings, and tooth extractions. The van serves those who are on Medicaid (Apple Health) or lack dental insurance. The van will be parked at the Mullis Community Senior Center 589 Nash St. in Friday Harbor.

And we want to offer a special thanks to the Mullis Community Senior Center and Friday Harbor Electric who installed a power hook up for the mobile dental van and donated the labor and material costs! Thank you for your generosity in support of our community accessing dental care.
