51 million school hours are lost every year to dental disease. The facts are alarming.

When students suffer from dental problems, they can’t concentrate and lack confidence. They are also subject to ridicule.

Oral Health Impact Project creates a Dental Home and provides a simple, customized, educator-friendly solution.

Significant Impact on Health and Development

The program exposes your students to dental care in a positive way. They not only bring good dental habits home to their families (and generations to come), they may also be inspired to pursue dental careers themselves.

Easy to Implement

Oral Health Impact Project provides each district and school with all the tools needed to launch a program in your community.

From school assemblies and community programs…to kid-friendly materials…to links to online sources…to job training opportunities...we offer services and programs that extend far beyond quality dental care.

Necessary Financial Assistance

Navigating a complex insurance system should never be a barrier to quality health care for children. That’s why we handle the details of helping families secure medical assistance and process insurance claims.
