About Us
Community Dental Foundation is dedicated to improving the
oral health of children and individuals with no dental insurance and low
incomes by providing accessible treatment and education to their community.
In November, 2006, the founders got involved with providing
dental services in underserved areas for children. By dealing personally with
the population in poverty, especially the children that needed dental work, the
founders recognized there were still too many children that were not able to
get urgent needed dental services. Many parents are just not financially stable
enough to afford dental insurance and often do not know about the influence of
dental care for the total health care of their children. We decided to jump in
to help these innocent children to be healthy and educate them about oral
health to hopefully prepare and educate the next generation to break this
cycle. In 2000, there were 108 million Americans who had lack of dental
insurance and many of them are not able to afford to visit a dentist.
Realizing the great need for dental services for the
uninsured, the founders created Community Dental Foundation to assist in
building a better future for the children!
