Chicago Cosmetic Dentist Big Smile Dental Gives Free Dental Care Through Charity Event

CHICAGO, IL -- Big Smile Dental, a popular cosmetic dentist in Chicago, recently announced that through its annual 'Dentists As a result of Heart' Valentine's Day charity event, many disadvantaged people in the Chicago area received the free dental care they so desperately needed.

In the several years since the charity event first began, Big Smile Dental has provided more than $1.25 million in free dental care to 2,500 needy men, women and children in the surrounding Chicago area.

Big Smile Dental is a premier cosmetic dentist offering high quality dental care at an affordable price. Led by Dr. Theodore Siegel, Big Smile Dental provides an expansive offering of dental services for adults and children, including smile makeovers, porcelain veneers, orthodontics, and teeth whitening. To help make every experience at Big Smile Dental a comfortable one, the practice offers complimentary massage chairs, headphones, movies, music and more. Located on Logan Square on the North side, Big Smile Dental has grown to become one of the leaders of cosmetic dentistry in Chicago.

"Unfortunately, dental care has become a luxury that not every family can afford. I started 'Dentists With Heart' to be able to provide much needed dental care to those less fortunate in the community. I truly feel blessed and proud to be able to help so many people in need," says Dr. Siegel of Big Smile Dental. (http://www.bigsmiledental.com)

On the most recent 'Dentists With Heart' charity event held February 14, 2009, despite the harsh winds, snow and freezing temperatures, people began lining up outside Big Smile Dental at midnight to ensure they would be able to receive free dental care. By the time the practice opened its doors at 9 a.m., the line had began to wrap around the block.

There are many people without medical insurance in Chicago, and an even greater number without dental insurance. Dr. Siegel and his staff at Big Smile Dental feel that dental care is a necessary service that should be available to everyone, even those who are unable to afford insurance. The practice's goal is to raise awareness in hopes that it will be easier in the future for uninsured people to find a dentist in the Chicago area to help ease their tooth discomfort and disease.

"I would like to thank my family, my entire staff, our volunteers and our sponsors who insisted upon working without pay. I am truly grateful to all of them for their passion, their help, and their dedication to help those in need. Their hard work is an inspiration to everyone," says Dr. Siegel.
