Everyone Deserves A Healthy Smile
Founding a Dental Clinic for those in need
In 1993, Dr. Passero helped launch the Northern Virginia Dental Clinic (NVDC), a program that meets the critical need of providing dental health care services to those with limited resources. Funded by a variety of public and private sources, the facility serves over a thousand low-income and uninsured residents each year – totaling over a million dollars of in-kind services given back to the community. The NVDC is staffed by dozens of volunteer dentists and hygienists as well as some part-time staff dentists, all of whom are dedicated to restoring healthy smiles and providing the highest level of care to each patient served. Today, Dr. Passero serves as a Board member and volunteer. The Clinic looks forward to expanding its successful model to other locales.
