Wood County Community Health Center will offer dental services in 2019. The public is invited to come celebrate the holidays and get a closer look at Wood County Community Health Center’s new dental expansion during an open house Dec. 6.

The dental expansion of the health center, located within Wood County Health Department, will be open to the public during a Holiday Open House from 4-7 p.m. Thursday, Dec. 6. In addition to tours of the health center and the dental expansion, the event will offer light refreshments, free chair massages, a dental-themed photo booth, take-home crafts for children, and a raffle.

An expansion of the health department and health center building on East Gypsy Lane Road was constructed this year as part of a plan to begin offering dental services in 2019. Watch for additional information in the future about specific services and how to schedule an appointment.
