It's first come, first served with doors opening at 6 a.m. Saturday morning at the Henry A. Moses Alumni Hall on Meharry's campus. It's right off of Jefferson and Dr. DB Todd Jr. BLVD.

No insurance or ID is required.

The school is offering free cleanings, fillings, and tooth extractions to the Nashville Community and beyond.

Meharry Oral Health Day clinics are usually twice a year, in the spring and in the fall, so people can get their bi-annual cleanings to maintain a healthy mouth, which in turn helps people's overall health.
