Changing lives through dental care
Dentaid The Dental Charity provides dental care and oral health advice for people experiencing homelessness, harm, poverty and abuse.
Our mobile dental units travel the UK providing outreach dental clinics for the most vulnerable people in our communities.
We help people at risk of health inequalities who’ve been living with the misery of toothache and restore their self-esteem by giving them more confidence in their smile. We know that oral healthcare can help our patients move on to a new chapter in their lives.
Did you know we also provide charitable dental services overseas?
About
Who we help
We run outreach dental clinics for people experiencing homelessness, survivors of abuse, families in poverty, refugees, cancer patients, people recovering from addiction and communities where people are struggling to access dental care.
How we help
Dentaid The Dental Charity has ten mobile dental units and a static dental trailer. Our vehicles travel the country visiting soup kitchens, hostels and community centres with volunteer dental professionals providing dental treatment and oral health advice.
Our impact
“After all the years of abuse, finally I just want my mouth to be in good health – to smile for once and not worry about the paranoia. Dentaid have given me a smile that will last even when the numbing goes down.” - Ian, Dentaid patient in Bristol
Did you know we have an oral health programme for children?
