Giving Back to Society February is National Children’s Dental Health Month Typically the month that celebrates love, history, and heart health, February is also National Children’s Dental Health month, sponsored by the American Dental Association (ADA). At Children’s Dental Health, their dentists and staff are taking this opportunity to share good oral health habits and raise awareness of the importance of paediatric dental care at an early age. The ADA’s theme this year is, “Brush and clean in between to build a healthy smile!” While daily brushing is an important part of a child’s oral hygiene routine, bacteria that cause tooth decay can still linger between teeth where the toothbrush cannot reach. The ADA’s slogan reminds children and their parents that it’s important to floss for this reason. Today’s parents are often overwhelmed with an abundance of information regarding their child’s health, making it difficult to even begin a conversation on oral health. A parent’s first step involves establishing a dental home for their child by their first tooth or first birthday. During this time, parents/guardians will have the opportunity to ask questions and address any dental concerns at the primary visit. Ultradent Products Inc. announced on 27 th November 2018, known nationally as “Giving Tuesday,” that it would donate US$10,000 to a Humanitarian Medical and Dental Education Fund started by the Adams, Gladwell, Durham Foundation based in Salt Lake City, Utah. The money will go towards providing professional medical and dental education to underserved populations through online lectures and hands-on trainings provided to students through virtual reality programmes. “We’ve basically created online education with hands-on education via virtual reality technology that allows the students to perform procedures as if they were on an actual human, in an actual lab, but via technology,” said Dr. Mark Durham, a prosthodontist and co-founder of the Adams, Gladwell, Durham Foundation. “The challenge on the planet today is that there is progress in some areas and the lack of progress in others which leads to problems for people. The solution is scaling education. If we In addition, the paediatric dentists at Children’s Dental Health recommend the following oral health tips to maintain a healthy smile and effectively prevent children from getting cavities. • Brush for two minutes, two times a day. • Don’t forget to floss! • Make regular dental appointments for teeth cleanings and to minimise any damage with early treatment. • Replace your child’s toothbrush every three to four months. • Eat a tooth-healthy diet (limit sweet and sticky foods). Children’s Dental Health has been providing quality paediatric dental care to the community for more than 40 years. With more than 20 practices and paediatric dentists located throughout the state of Pennsylvania, they allow for convenient access to dental care that is engaging, fun, and educational for patients. With their “show, tell, do” method, their growing patients actively learn routines to ensure a healthy smile for years to come. Their gentle approach to paediatric dental care reflects their core mission of education and prevention. DA Ultradent Donates to Humanitarian Medical and Dental Education Charity can share this information, we can start doing things that have never been done before and really create another renaissance, which would be beautiful for humanity. We’re investing in systems and technology that we’re developing that allows us to go into areas of the world and deliver education for a fraction of the cost, with some of the best minds,” continued Dr. Durnham. As for their progress toward the goal of educating as many people as possible, Dr. Durham reported, “So far, the foundation has built three surgical modules for around US$50,000, which can now be shared without charging a penny to download. This year, because we are getting faster at building modules, our team and our local collaborators have set a goal to build eight modules for the same amount of money.” Ultradent gladly supports hundreds of humanitarian efforts every year, worldwide. This includes donations towards major disaster relief efforts as well as smaller, individually run humanitarian missions. DA Establishing a Long Term and Sustainable Oral Health Program In 2017, the Modern Dental Group Europe, to which Elysee Dental belongs to, started a foundation to deliver a durable contribution to the dental care in Madagascar: Modern Dental Care Foundation (MDCF). The Modern Dental Care Foundation strives to perform preventive, medical and dental treatments and to strengthen the help that benefits the development in Madagascar, or another country where help is needed. Besides financial contributions from our group of companies, we actively promote and ask the dental industry and dental professionals for donations. The Modern Dental Care foundation depends on gifts from third parties and the help of volunteers for executing their activities. All gifts, either small or big, are welcome to make dental help possible for everyone.
