People all over the world need their teeth. However, people in developing countries have very little access to dental care. We volunteer in Vanuatu to bring oral health care to the population. Good oral health is not only about having a healthy smile; it can also impact your overall health, well-being and quality of life. We help bring a smile to thousands of children and adults who would not otherwise receive care.

What we do.

• promote healthy mouth, healthy body education to a population who are eager to increase their oral health knowledge.
• supply toothbrushes for individual and group toothbrushing demonstrations
• conduct dental examinations and  treatment for urban and remote populations concentrating on children and adolescents.
• send donated medical and dental equipment to underfunded hospitals and clinics.
• conduct research to help find the risk factors for the population's high rate of gum disease which has led to a high rate of tooth loss.
• identify and assist with referral pathways for children diagnosed with cleft palate and other conditions.

What you can do.

EOFY tax deductible donations of up to $20 AUD will give these children somewhere to store their toothbrushes.
We have sourced local seamstresses to create toothbrush holders.
They will be placed in all classrooms we visit supporting the creation of school-centered healthy hub learning areas.
Our goal is to have 50 made. 

All donations help and once the funds are raised for the toothbrush holders, the additional funds will be used for purchasing dental equipment and transporting to dental clinics in Vanuatu.
