The Buffalo Outreach and Community Assistance Fundraising Gala raises money through donations, raffles, and silent and live auctions. Proceeds provide free services including dental education, oral examinations, mouth guard fabrication, periodontal scaling and oral prophylaxis, amalgam, glass ionomer and resin composite restorations, endodontic procedures and routine and surgical exodontia. Our program is recognized by the University and has been acknowledged by the American Dental Association as a successful organization aimed at providing oral health care to those in need. This year, a portion of the proceeds raised will be utilized to purchase dental supplies, equipment, and cover other operating costs assumed by student volunteers.
