Our mission is to provide a fun a unique dental experience for low-income and marginalized communities. Our organization can reach out to classrooms to build a strong oral health foundation for success through prevention. Our ultimate goal is to build a healthier community by decreasing the rate of cavity prevalence and dental diseases. Magic Tooth Bus will provide a fun, creative and engaging curriculum to present to students and families on sites. Magic Tooth Bus creates a magical experience for the children in San Francisco by giving them oral health tips and quicker access to dental services. One promising solution to this crisis is to bring dental care services to people in these communities. Magic Tooth Bus team will present oral health curriculum in classrooms and facilities to children, teachers, parents and caregivers to create a solid network for success so that everyone supporting their families will learn best practices in keeping a healthy mouth and learning how to identify signs of disease. The mobile dental services model offers access to dental care, preventive healthcare, and chronic disease screening and management services. Specific services offered by mobile dental programs may include dental exams, education, and dental sealants. The impact that oral health education instilled in classrooms goes beyond school settings and influences healthy lifestyle changes at home, in the community and general health of that individual. Our work is possible with your support.
