Prevention and education
The sooner the children learn how to properly care for their teeth, the more chances they have to retain healthy teeth and bright smiles for the rest of life. According to the research carried out in Lithuania, 82% of children under 6 years of age already have caries or other dental problems. The number of Lithuanian children who regularly brush their teeth and know how to properly take care of them barely reaches 40%.
We know that preventive dentistry and teaching children about proper oral care is the best investment into their health and happiness. This is why we hold preventive training courses and meetings with dentists and other specialists for children of various ages. They try to teach the children how to take better care of their smiles, overcome their fears and bust the myths that surround dental treatments and dentists.
If you would like our doctors to visit your day care center, school, nursing home or other institution, please contact us by e-mail at info@odontologufondas.lt and we will get back to you as soon as possible.
Talking to adults about the importance of oral health would also be our pleasure! It is never too late to start taking better care of yourself!
We will be grateful for any kind of contribution to our Foundation. Help us to put smiles and light up the faces of those who need our help the most!
Free dental treatment
Many years of research have shown poor oral health of Lithuanians, especially that of children who also seem to lack dental care skills.
Regretfully, not everyone has a possibility to receive professional dental treatment in time. Just like any other type of help, dental health services are mostly needed by the most vulnerable members of our society: families with low income and their children, young adults who have grown up without a family, single mothers, victims of domestic abuse, the elderly and the people recovering from various disasters and crises.
We believe that a smile can change a life. It grants self-confidence and optimism, helps to find a job and increases the motivation to confront the life with all its misfortunes and change it for the better.
The goal of the Lithuanian Dental Charitable Foundation is to provide free professional help to those in need.
We believe that a smile is one of the best gifts you can give to a human being. Our goal is to give a reason to smile to as many people as possible!
We will be grateful for any kind of contribution to our Foundation. Help us to put smiles and light up the faces of those who need our help the most!
