We envision a world where oral health is recognized as the gateway to systemic health with the understanding that preventative oral health care and maintenance of oral health is a necessity for all as opposed to the current status of a luxury for some. We also envision a world where oral health education is connected to overall health in our educational system where our youth are constantly reminded of the importance of maintaining teeth for health and not for purely cosmetic aspirations. Finally, we envision a world where dental professionals are collaborative parts of primary care health teams and local community organizations dedicated to health equity, access, and education.
We aim to support our local community through friendship, education, and service in efforts to build positive relationships between the community and oral health initiatives.
Our purpose is to remove the veil of consumerism surrounding dentistry by engaging in community collaboration, engagement, and service.
We offer dental educational support in the areas of
*Oral Health Education
*Connecting Oral Health With Systemic Health
*Smoking Prevention and Cessation
*Dental Career Counseling & Development Through Internships
*Career Day Presentations (Schools, Churches, Non-Profits)
We collaborate with local non-profit organizations to provide basic dental care for their clients and to increase community awareness on the importance of oral health. We also aim to bring awareness to local and state agencies who offer low cost or specialized dental care.
