For over 20 years, you can find the Tooth Fairy and some of her assistants roaming around the halls of the Door County Medical Center Clinic. Every year, the clinic hosts its Tooth Fairy event, which collects donations to support its work with patients in Door and Kewaunee counties who are on Medicaid or considered low-income with no dental insurance. The Door County Medical Center Dental Clinic has grown tremendously since it opened its doors 25 years ago. Last year, the clinic had over 4,500 visits from patients. Tanya Fischer from the Door County Medical Center Dental Clinic says it is sign that is important to get the preventative care you need for your teeth.
You can donate by stopping by their 16th Avenue entrance and purchasing a paper tooth to hang on the wall or you can mail it in. We have more information on the Tooth Fairy event online with this story.
