CINCINNATI (FOX19) - The Cincinnati Health Department (CHD), in partnership with Madisonville Community Council, is providing dental services exclusively for senior residents of Madisonville as part of a pilot program called “Senior Smile Days”.  These services will be essential in removing the two major barriers seniors face in getting dental care: access to care and high cost.    

On Friday seniors are being bused to CHD’s Crest Smile Shoppe, located at 612 Rockdale Ave, where they will receive dental check-ups and emergency services from 8 a.m.- 5 p.m.    

On two previous Fridays,  March 23 and 30, a total of 23 seniors from the St. Paul Village facility and the Madisonville community received dental services with transportation provided by Madisonville Community Center.
