For many people who are without extended health care, going to the dentist is out of the question. But what if you are experiencing dental pain or infection and cannot afford treatment?
If dental problems are left untreated, they can escalate into much worse problems that can affect your overall well-being.
Thankfully there are free or low-cost dental clinics, staffed by fully licensed dental practitioners, available to low-income seniors in the Okanagan.
