Texas Mission of Mercy is a two-day assault on the dental problems facing people in McLennan County who can’t afford dentistry. The Waco-McLennan County Dental Task Force is planning a mobile field dentistry unit staffed by volunteers.

Twenty five community agencies have identified people served by their individual agencies who are in dire need of dental care but can’t afford it.

The patients are ready and the Texas Dental Association is recruiting hundreds of volunteers to help.

Volunteer dentists, dental assistants, clerks, registration specialists and folks who just want to help are needed.

This will be Waco’s first Mission of Mercy and volunteers willing to help with this two-day event are needed. Its been two years in the planning. Now the time is here to sign up to help. Join hundreds of your neighbors as they volunteer to help more than a thousand people who desperately need dental services. If you are interested in making a difference we can surely find a place for you. Be it patient registration or dental care, there is a way for you to make oral health care a reality for those without options! Register online by clicking the Online Registration.

Each volunteer needs to register separately in order to receive registration materials and a thank-you letter.
