Mobile dentists make visits to Prince George’s County schools
Mobile Dentists, a Michigan-based nonprofit, serves school districts in 14 states and first came 
to the county last spring. It offers dental care for children whose parents are either unable to afford or too busy to arrange regular dental care.
For $80 or less, depending on financial need, parents can enroll their children in the program, which visits each spring and fall.
