Local Dentist Organizes Largest Ever Charity Dentistry Drive

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
new york city, New York, United States of America (Free-Press-Release.com) January 28, 2012 -- A dentist In Coral Springs, Florida recently organized what many people believe to be the largest charity dentist drive in the United States of America. The drive was created for the purpose of helping underprivileged children receive proper dental care. The function was aimed at those hardest hit by the economic decline. A source at Guinness world records has yet to confirm or deny the official status of the record.

Speaking about the event, an anonymous company spokesperson said, “We just know there are a lot of people really hard hit by the economic downtrend. Here in the state of Florida, we have some of the highest foreclosure rates in the entire country. As a result, we’re seeing more and more people who have lost their coverage and are no longer able to get quality dental care. We figured we could do our small part by providing basic free dental care for those who need it most.”

The source continued by saying, “When people lose their job, dental is usually the first thing to go. However, teeth are far too important to let go by the wayside.”

Experts are still debating the exact figures for the decline in dental coverage. However, many conservative figures project the losses at as high as 27%. Other experts were quick to suggest that the figure is actually closer to 18%, stating that the numbers are skewed by the number of people currently on unemployment and assistance programs. Regardless of where the actual figures fall, it has led to an increased moral debate about the sustainability of dental insurance coverage. Experts have largely agreed that some government intervention is needed although there is wide speculation about just have to go about solving this particular issue.
