POTTSTOWN — Community Health & Dental Care and Montgomery County Community College joined together recently to host the grand opening celebration of the new CHDC Mobile Oral Health Unit.
The new mobile unit provides access to dental services at the college’s Pottstown Campus, 101 College Drive — offering full dental exams, cleanings, simple extractions, sealants, and X-rays on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m.
“We are very excited to have this opportunity to partner with Montgomery County Community College to deliver quality dental services for the students, faculty members and general community with easier access for all,” Bridgette McGivern, CEO of Community Health and Dental Care, said in a statement.
During the grand opening Sept. 9., Montgomery County Community College President Victoria L. Bastecki-Perez shared the combined vision for a healthier community and collaborative educational opportunities for students enrolled in its Dental Hygiene programs, according to a press release.
David Kraybill, board trustee of the college, expressed his support for the partnership and the “bright future ahead for the community members this will serve,” the release stated.
