Transforming Smiles, Changing Lives: A Legacy of Compassionate Dental Care

Established in 1975, this organization has been a beacon of hope for adults with disabilities, providing essential dental care through a robust network of volunteer dentists and laboratories across the United States. Their mission revolves around transforming lives by alleviating dental pain and restoring smiles, especially for those who are elderly, disabled, or in desperate need of medically necessary dental intervention. With an impressive coalition of 12,350 volunteer dentists and 3,300 dental labs, they deliver free, comprehensive dental treatment to individuals who cannot afford necessary care, including veterans and those with life-threatening medical conditions requiring healthy oral hygiene.

The organization, originally called the National Foundation of Dentistry for the Handicapped, originated in Colorado under the vision of dental advocate Dr. Larry Coffee. It later expanded nationwide to what it is today, reaching an astounding benchmark of $500 million in donated dental therapies, assisting over 170,000 people. Their outreach extends beyond direct treatments; they offer training programs to teach individuals with disabilities proper oral hygiene techniques and support caregivers with needed education on dental health. Guided by a commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion, the organization continues its legacy under the leadership of CEO Lynda Ricketson, with aspirations of furthering its impact within the community.
