Children from across southern Nevada traveled to TPC Summerlin to see a dentist Monday. The free dental clinic was part of the Justin Timberlake Shriners Golf Tournament. It is the fourth year TeamSmile has put on the event. About 225 kids in need went to today’s free clinic. For some of the kids, this is the first dentist or hygienist they have seen. Dentists at Monday’s clinic say tooth decay is getting worse which is hurting children’s ability to concentrate. So far, TeamSmile has provided almost a million dollars in free dental work to low-income students. Each child received several toothbrushes, floss and toothpaste.
