About Nova Dental Partners
Dr. Kamran and Kambiz Tavakkoli are the founders of Nova Dental Partners with four practice locations in Woodbridge and Alexandria. The Tavakkoli brothers have been named Top Dentist by Northern Virginia Magazine and have gained a reputation of excellence in the dental community. They are experts in general and cosmetic dentistry and are certified providers of Invisalign and Lumineers.

On Saturday, November 4th doctors Kamran and Kambiz Tavakkoli and their experienced team hosted a Free Dentistry Day at their Lake Ridge, Woodbridge dental practice, providing nearly 50 patients without dental insurance with nearly $30K worth of dental services including routine exams, cleanings, fillings and extractions.

Free Dentistry Day events help the growing number of people who can not afford dental care. About 74 million Americans had no dental coverage in 2016, according to the National Association of Dental Plans.

"We were absolutely thrilled to have been able to provide dental services to uninsured or underinsured and low income people in our community. We could not have done this without the help of our amazing staff who volunteered their time to make sure people in our community got the dental care they needed." says Kamran Tavakkoli, D.M.D. co-founder and dentist at Nova Dental Partners.

Dr. Kamran Tavakkoli and Dr. Kambiz Tavakkoli and members of the team from Nova Dental Partners went to the University of Richmond on June 10th, where they volunteered dental services as part of The Mission of Mercy program. The Mission of Mercy (MOM) projects are conducted in identified, underserved areas of Virginia where there are not enough dental practitioners to adequately address the oral health needs of the community.

“We had such a great day in Richmond helping the local community with their oral health needs. Community service is our social responsibility and we are committed to contributing our time and services to our community whenever possible. I’m personally very proud to be a part of this wonderful program. ” said Dr. Kamran Tavakkoli.

Dr. Kamran and Dr. Kambiz instructed and performed extractions and composite restorations.  They also spent a lot of time screening patients to customize individual treatment plans. The hygiene team provided assistance with cleanings and fluoride treatments.  The Nova Dental Partners team and MOM volunteers treated approximately 200 people that were in need of dental work.

About The Mission of Mercy

“An estimated 3.8 million Virginians - more than 47% of our total population - do not have dental insurance according to the Virginia Health Care Foundation. Sixty-nine (69) localities in the Commonwealth have no dental safety net provider. Of the 66 localities that do, many of the clinics operate on a part-time basis and are overwhelmed by the number of calls for help. Without access to affordable dental care, many people -- especially those who are low-income, underinsured, disabled or seniors -- are left to suffer pain, discomfort, and embarrassment with nowhere else to turn. To address the overwhelming need for access to free oral health care, Dr. Terry Dickinson, executive director of the Virginia Dental Association, created the Mission of Mercy (MOM) program in 2000 to provide high-quality dental care for underserved Virginians. The MOM program operates mobile clinics in strategic locations across the State, providing preventive, restorative, and surgical dental treatments to more than 4,000 low-income individuals each year."
