Tooth decay is the #1 chronic childhood disease and it’s entirely preventable. When you look at the oral health of North Dakota 3rd graders: 1/3 do not brush their teeth, 9/10 do not floss their teeth, & 2/3 have tooth decay.
Imagine a future where all oral health needs are met. You can help us get there! This is the impact your donation could help us make in 2024:
- Gift every K-12 student in North Dakota a toothbrush.
- Gift 100,000 toothbrush kits to North Dakota families in need.
- Help North Dakotans receive FREE dental care this Fall at the North Dakota Mission of Mercy.
- Increase the number of licensed dental assistants and hygienists in North Dakota through our Bright Futures in Dentistry program which focuses on creating a pipeline of students to dental assisting and hygiene programs.
We are Grateful for our 2024 General Match Sponsors
Before Giving Hearts Day (Feb 8th), the North Dakota Dental Foundation raises matching pledges to double donations on Giving Hearts Day.
