Northern Arizona Community Dental Days (NAZCDD) is a collaborative that was formed in March 2023 with a mission to provide no-cost preventive, surgical, and restorative dental care to underserved and vulnerable adults in Coconino County. Through this model, NACDD hopes to create a pathway toward establishing a comprehensive dental care model. The focus of NACDD is to provide ongoing, consistent preventative care to low-income, vulnerable residents in Coconino County, which in turn could move the standard model of care provided in
the area from emergency to preventative. NACDD plans to schedule, organize, and recruit volunteers to provide no-cost dental care for adults in Coconino County through small community dental events.
