The Smiling School Program, a pioneering effort in India, is transforming lives in the remotest corners of the country by providing critical oral healthcare. Thousands of children who had never seen a dentist have now received preventive treatment, sparing them from the long-term consequences of untreated dental issues. While significant strides have been made in medical philanthropy, oral health remains largely neglected—even though most dental problems are preventable. For many children, untreated dental issues can lead to malnutrition, school absences, and even affect their future careers.
Shockingly, we’ve encountered young individuals who were rejected from opportunities in the armed forces due to lost teeth—particularly molars—resulting in points deducted during medical clearances. This is a stark reminder of the long-term impact poor oral health can have on a child’s future.
With the rise of sugary foods, even in remote areas thanks to improved roads, dental care has not kept pace. Our initiative tackles this gap head-on, raising awareness and offering much-needed care. By supporting the Smiling School Program, you can help us expand our outreach, spread awareness, and provide vital treatment to children in need, ensuring they lead healthier, pain-free lives.
Help us make a difference—One smile at a time!
