Generous donations made by the attendees of the Dental Testing and Regulatory Summit, and the ADEX Board of Directors, are helping several patients of Mission of Mercy, Texas smile again! 

Your gifts made an instant impact to the Mission of Mercy organization in 2025. Thank you for your generosity and support!

MOM's Mission

Mission of Mercy (MOM) of Maryland/Pennsylvania strives to restore dignity and "healing through love” by providing free healthcare to those in need. It operates both a mobile dental and a mobile medical clinic in the Maryland areas of Taneytown, Reisterstown, Brunswick and Frederick; and Gettysburg and Harrisburg in Pennsylvania. The state-of-the-art Mobile Unit offers a prep chair and two dental operators. Free lab work and x-rays are generously provided by hospitals in the service areas. 

In June 2025, Mission of Mercy launched a new initiative to expand access to dental care for Veterans who otherwise go without it. In Frederick, Maryland, their Mobile Dental Clinic partners with the veteran-focused nonprofit Platoon 22 to deliver free services, including cleanings, fillings, and extractions. Clinics are held once a month on Fridays.   Building on this success, Mission of Mercy is launching a similar program in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, in June 2026.

Since 1994, Mission of Mercy has provided barrier-free healthcare to more than 50,000 medical and dental patients, delivering over 260,000 free visits and dispensing more than 455,000 medications. Every donation directly supports these life-changing services.
