Community Dental Programs
EBCAP’s Community Dental Programs are bringing preventive and restorative dental care to children at their schools and daycare centers. The agency operates two Community Dental Programs – The Molar Express and East Bay Smiles. The Molar Express is sometimes authorized to serve adults in the community.
The Molar Express
The Molar Express is a 42 foot long truck outfitted with two dental exam rooms/ operatories. East Bay Community Action Program shares the Molar Express with Comprehensive Community Action Program and Thundermist Health Center. Each organization has use of The Molar Express on a three-month rotation. For more information please visit molarexpress.org.

The Molar Express is made possible by the generous support of Ronald McDonald House Charities of New England.

East Bay Smiles
EBCAP’s Dental Hygienists and Dentists set up a portable dental “office” in schools where space allows – in the library, Nurse’s office, or an empty classroom, for example. This community program allows us to care for more children, and it helps parents because they don’t have to miss work for their children’s appointments.
