Our Community Initiatives

Improving oral health in local communities means giving to others, providing access to underserved populations, and contributing to the community you serve. It’s about making a positive impact on society and the environment.

We partner with and support a variety of organizations and initiatives at a local, national, and international level to bring better health and well-being to communities all around the world.

Brazil

For the sixth year, Dentsply Sirona collaborated with Amazon Doctors in 2023 to deliver quality oral health care to indigenous communities in the Amazon. For 10 days in June 2023, at the Wajãpi Indigenous Reservation in Amapá, Brazil, we were able to support the Amazon Doctors team to conduct more than 1,300 procedures and provide dental care for just under 800 people. These procedures were supported by our CEREC intraoral scanning and milling solutions. Furthermore, at the São Paulo International Dental Congress, Amazon Doctors released their book called ‘Levante e Lute - Get up and fight’ detailing the achievements of our partnership. The book summarizes the journey of the organization and their commitment to social engagement, and highlights the rich cultures found throughout the Amazon.

With reference to the typical number of teeth in the adult mouth, Project 32 is an initiative that provides free oral healthcare for underprivileged populations in Brazil and across South America. We have been working with Professor Machado, the founder of Project 32, for several years, to develop and then donate a simplified treatment kit that can easily be used in remote areas to provide endodontic care.

In 2023, we once again supported the annual Christmas Without Pain event, which provides free endodontic and restorative dental treatments actions in Brazil, Bolivia, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Dominican Republic, Mexico, Panama, Peru, and Uruguay.

Through our collaboration with the team in Brazil, we were able to support more than 80 patients through over 320 procedures in São Paulo across one action-packed day. We also helped almost 100 patients via 220 procedures over several days in the state of Rondônia, in the Amazon Rainforest. In total, the Project 32 team performed more than 540 endodontic and restorative procedures in 2023.

Kenya

To support the work of the Hardwick foundation, a non-profit organization providing dental care to underserved communities in the Masai region in Kenya, Dentsply Sirona donated state-of-the-art CEREC equipment, including a CEREC Primescan, CEREC Primemill and CEREC SpeedFire as well as CAD/CAM materials. The impact of a clinic in March 2023 is a testament to the importance of the work being done by the foundation. Over the course of three eight-hour days and one five-hour day, a team of 14 people, including three dentists, four dental hygienists, and three dental assistants, provided care to a staggering 314 patients. The team conducted 290 exams, took 244 X-rays, filled 85 cavities, extracted 197 teeth and performed four CEREC crowns. In addition, the team provided 126 dental hygiene cleanings and applied silver diamine fluoride to arrest active cavities.

United States

In March 2023, Dentsply Sirona collaborated with America’s ToothFairy on “Bid for Smiles” to raise $26,000 to support prevention resources and services for 5,000 children who otherwise might not receive the dental services they need to be healthy. America’s ToothFairy helps improve the lives of these children by providing essential resources that help nonprofit dental organizations serve more kids each year.

Dentsply Sirona partnered with TeamSmile to organize a free dental clinic for underprivileged children from local Boys and Girls Clubs and other organizations in Charlotte, North Carolina in July 2024. Children attending the clinic received a range of free dental services, including x-rays, cleaning, fillings, sealants and extractions, with a total estimated value of almost US$26,000. In addition to receiving dental care and free oral health education, the young patients had the opportunity to meet Homer the Dragon, the Official Mascot of the Charlotte Knights baseball team, along with other TeamSmile mascots. The event also featured face painting to create a fun and memorable dental treatment experience for the children.

In 2024, Dentsply Sirona donated $30,000 to Dental Lifeline Network, in support of their Lifeline Heroes Challenge. This donation is part of a partnership which started 25 years ago in 1999. Dental Lifeline Network is dedicated to matching elderly, disabled, and medically fragile veterans in the US with volunteer dentists, enabling them to receive vital dental treatment at no cost.

The Lifeline Heroes Challenge aims to connect volunteers and coordinate care for 1,000 veterans each year. Between 2022-2023 over 980 dentists volunteered to provide free treatment for more than 940 veterans and the value of the care provided to veterans was $3.7 million. Since 1974, Dental Lifeline Network has enabled more than $540 million in donated dental care for 170,000 people through a nationwide community of 16,000 volunteer dentists, specialists, and labs. Since the beginning of its veteran’s initiative in 2018, the organization has helped more than 5,200 veterans access the extensive dental care they needed.

United Kingdom

In July 2024, Dentsply Sirona raised more than £15,000 for Dentaid The Dental Charity with its third annual Miles for Smiles charity walk. Dentsply Sirona had invited dental professionals, employees, partners, friends and family members in the UK to participate in a 13-mile walk (20.92 km). More than 100 participants took part in this year’s fundraiser event.

Over the last three years, Miles for Smiles raised a total of more than £52,500. The Miles for Smiles charity walk embodies the shared values of Dentsply Sirona and Dentaid The Dental Charity to give back healthy smiles to those in need. All funds raised via participant registrations and voluntary donations will be used by Dentaid The Dental Charity to help children and adults with limited access to dental care to maintain their oral health.
