Factoria Dentistry will offer free dental care to seniors, 65 and older for Bellevue, Newcastle, Renton and Mercer Island residents between March 23-27.

Because a large segment of seniors do not have access to a good dental insurance plan they often limit their dental care, according to Dr. Kenza Houki- Chihab of Factoria Dentistry. Dr. Houki- Chihab added that periodical health has been linked to cardiovascular disease caused by the bacteria that are harbored in the periodontal pockets.
