Paola’s siblings started their journey with Cass County Dental Clinic in 2015. Paolo is only five, but she’s been walking through the clinic doors for three years. Cass County Dental Clinic is her family’s dental home.
Her mother, Beatriz, heard about Cass Community Health Foundation’s safety net dental clinic from a friend. Since then, Paola and her brothers and sisters have faced few barriers to their dental care.
“I was nervous prior to Paola’s visit,” Beatriz said. “But the dentist was very nice and did a great job with her.”
Beatriz feels comfortable with the treatment at Cass County Dental Clinic and is trusting Paola can maintain her healthy smile with the assistance of clinic staff.
“They are always on top of it,” Beatriz said. “They call me to schedule every six months and always tell me how to take care of Paola’s teeth at home.”
Paola and her siblings benefit from Cass County Dental Clinic’s dental home model. The clinic focuses on providing inclusive care that prioritizes an ongoing relationship between our dentists and patients that is safe, individualized, and accessible. Cass County Dental Clinic is a family-centered option for children just like Paola and her siblings.
Cass County Dental Clinic, a program of Cass Community Health Foundation, is a nonprofit clinic that provides dental services to children, adolescents, and pregnant people who lack access to quality dental care. Patients can schedule appointments Monday through Friday in Belton, Missouri as well as Tuesday and Wednesday in Harrisonville, Missouri.
