The campaign has provided 2500 free dental procedures to 1700 low income patients over the past three years.

A dental practice on Auckland's North Shore is offering those on low incomes free dental work for one day only.

The Milford Family Dentist clinic is taking part in a nationwide campaign to provide care to low-income adults, with urgent dental work, who may not otherwise be able to afford it.

The campaign, spearheaded by the New Zealand Dental Association and Southern Cross Health Trust, has 50 different dental workers volunteering across 16 regions and in 27 dental clinics.

The Milford practice will open to low-income patients on Friday, September 8.

Community services card-holders will be eligible for the free work.

They will be allocated 30-minute to 40-minute slots for treatments like fillings, restorations and extractions, and pain relief.

Two volunteers will take up to 35 patients on the day, with appointments available on a first come, first served basis.

It is the first time the Milford clinic has been involved with the initiative, which has been running for three years.

Owner Dr Kavendra Naidoo operates three other Auckland clinics that will also participate in the scheme.

"To be able to volunteer is an excellent way to get to know all types of people," Naidoo said.

"It brings our team together, as well, because it's rewarding to help others."

Around 750 Kiwis are expected to benefit from the volunteer work, with 1700 people already having received treatment in previous years.

Those eligible must call 0800 373 376 for a spot.
