Overview
Originating in Virginia and spreading throughout the United States, more than 50 Mission of Mercy (MOM) dental programs have been conducted since 2000 to provide free dental care to local residents who otherwise were unable to receive treatment.

A successful MOM event focuses on:

• Providing free access to dental care while placing a high priority on patients suffering from dental infections or pain
• Raising public awareness of the increasing difficulty low-income adults and children face in accessing critical dental care
• Challenging Medicaid patients, policy-makers and dental professionals to work together to improve the oral health of those who have been promised care by the state
