Dentaid is one of the leading oral health charities in the world. Dentaid is improving oral health through: -

Encouraging and supporting oral health programmes for schools and needy communities

 

Providing appropriate resources for regional treatment centres and community outreach programmes

 

Developing educational and training initiatives for indigenous oral health workers

 

Campaigning to improve oral health and access to oral care locally, nationally and globally.

Dentaid has supported oral health programmes in over 50 countries from countries ranging from Peru to Romania, Russia to Uganda and Sri Lanka to Sierra Leone. 

Traditionally our funding comes from appeals, fundraising, other forms of regular giving and trading.  Due to the expansion of our work we are now working to receive funding from legacies and trusts.

Dentaid has no political affiliations

Dentaid does not send volunteers overseas, preferring to employ local people wherever possible. We work with local partner organisations to ensure that the programmes we support are sustainable and not just short-term solutions.
