Georgia Mission of Mercy 

Georgia Mission of Mercy (GMOM), a program of the Georgia Dental Association Foundation, provides no-cost dental care to underserved and uninsured adults across Georgia. Volunteer dental professionals deliver critical services, relieving pain and infection while supporting lasting oral health. 

Upcoming GMOM Events

Organized by the Georgia Dental Association Foundation, GMOM clinics provide donated dental care to underserved and uninsured adults across Georgia with support from volunteer dental professionals and community partners. 

When will the next GMOM be?

Stay tuned for more details about our upcoming Georgia Mission of Mercy clinics in 2027.

Who We Serve 

GMOM helps adults who are uninsured, underinsured, or unable to afford dental care. Many patients have delayed treatment for years due to cost or lack of access. Care is provided at no cost and prioritized based on clinical need. 

 

Services Provided 

At each GMOM event, volunteers may offer: 

  • Dental exams and consultations 

  • Cleanings and preventive care 

  • Fillings and basic restorative treatment 

  • Simple extractions and limited oral surgery 

  • Urgent and pain-relief care 

Services vary by event depending on patient need, available volunteers, and resources.
