Delta Dental of Tennessee, the state's largest independent dental benefits carrier, donated $563,000 to East Tennessee dental clinics, according to the Cleveland Daily Banner.
The funds were given via the Smile180 Foundation and will help community clinics provide dental cleanings, fillings, root canals, crowns, bridges and dentures.
"We can make a positive impact by assisting our Tennessee clinic partners in their efforts to create affordable dental care for all — regardless of financial status," Phil Wenk, DDS, CEO and president of Delta Dental of Tennessee, said, according to the Cleveland Daily Banner.
