The Food & Care Coalition has partnered with Mountainlands Community Health Center to provide on-site dental care for patrons who are currently receiving services through the Food & Care Coalition or other community partners. Currently, the clinic operates 4-6 days per month, offering dental cleanings, fillings, and extractions to 250-300 clients annually.
The clinic originated as a partnership with the Share a Smile Foundation until the passing of its founder Eric Vogel in 2015. The clinic boasts state of the art equipment and provides practicum experience for UVU’s school of hygiene students. Dr. David Blackhurst who originally worked with Dr. Vogel is now the clinic’s lead dentist.
