To help alleviate some financial pain for those who have fought for our country, Pearl Dentistry of Butler announced it will join businesses nationwide in offering free dental care to veterans and active-duty military personnel on Oct. 11 as part of Freedom Day USA.

Those interested are encouraged to schedule an appointment by calling 724-571-8771, as no walk ins will be accepted.

Pearl Dentistry will be offering free cleanings and fillings, but more comprehensive care will be offered at a discount on a later date due to time restraints on the event.

Appointments for the event will begin at 9 a.m. and continue until about 1 p.m.
