Arkansas Army National Guard opens dental clinic
CAMP JOSEPH T. ROBINSON, NORTH LITTLE ROCK, Ark. — Army Capt. Marco Gargano, a dentist, prepares to numb a Soldier before treating a cavity. The clinic staff can treat up to 10 patients a day on drill weekends, helping ensure Soldiers remain dentally ready for state or federal missions. The clinic is one piece of a multi-layered approach to help keep Soldiers deployment ready. The Army Guard relies on the clinic, contract dentists, and a Soldier’s private dental insurance to ensure Soldiers are ready to deploy.
