The Ronald McDonald House Bismarck Care Mobile Program makes a lasting impact on the health and well-being of children across North Dakota by providing free, high-quality dental care to those who might otherwise go without essential services. Serving more than 1,000 children annually, the Care Mobile travels to schools and underserved communities, including rural and tribal areas, eliminating barriers such as transportation, financial hardship, and limited access to dental providers.
Through preventive services, including exams, cleanings, fluoride treatments, and sealants, as well as restorative care such as fillings and extractions, the program helps reduce untreated tooth decay, relieve dental pain, and promote lifelong oral health. By bringing care directly to children, the Care Mobile also helps reduce missed school days, supports improved classroom participation, and gives families peace of mind.
More than just a mobile dental clinic, the Care Mobile is a vital resource that helps ensure every child, regardless of their family’s income or where they live, has the opportunity for a healthier smile and a brighter future.
