Western North Carolina has experienced catastrophic flooding and damage due to Hurricane Helene. We are helping out our dental community in the area through our emergency relief funds and supporting them in their recovery as needed.
*If you are a dentist impacted by the hurricane and in need of assistance, reach out to Sharon D’costa at- sdcosta@ncdental.org to apply for a relief grant.
We help North Carolinians in need – including children, veterans and adults. Some have never been to a dentist. From prevention and education to treatment, the Foundation focuses on individuals in dire need. More than 35% of children enter kindergarten with some tooth decay, and 21% of seniors statewide have lost all their teeth. We put smiles back on the faces of our neighbors.
Throughout the state, gifts to the Foundation from individuals, corporations, agencies and communities are transforming lives. People once reluctant to smile or talk because they were embarrassed about their teeth are now smiling again. Kids who couldn’t focus in school due to pain are healthier and learning.
