The Issaquah Highlands Dental Group will be offering free dental services from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday as part of the Smile Generation Serve Day. The annual event provides free dental treatment to community members who do not have access to dental care.

More than 345 Pacific Dental Services-supported offices are expected to participate. The Issaquah Highlands Dental Group will offer patients anything from cleanings, exams and Digital X-rays to extractions and restorations.

“Smile Generation Serve Day is a day of giving back to our community, and giving back is something that my team and I are very passionate about,” said Dr. William McGlashan, Issaquah Highlands Dental Group. “We are honored to work with the Issaquah Food and Clothing Bank to provide donated dentistry to their clients who would otherwise not have access to dental care.”

At last year’s event, there were approximately 2,700 Pacific Dental Services-supported dentist and team member volunteers, 240 Smile Generation offices and more than 1,600 patients. More than $2.4 million was donated in dentistry services.
