(May 30, 2017, Charlotte, NC)– Underserved children around the nation will have increased access to quality oral healthcare thanks to a recent product donation from Cosmedent, Inc. made to America’s ToothFairy: National Children’s Oral Health Foundation (NCOHF).

Valued at $139,089, the donation consisted of various dental composites and core build up materials, including Cosmecore and Renamel products. The donated items were distributed to 10 member clinics of the America’s ToothFairy Dental Clinic Resource Program, a national network of non-profit dental clinics providing comprehensive oral health services to underserved children and families.

In addition to product donations, member clinics of the America’s ToothFairy Dental Clinic Resource Program receive educational resources, equipment and financial grants to support the expansion of dental services for children in need.

Located in Hartsville, SC, the CareFIRST Carolina Foundation works to support dental services and programs for children and families in need. “We would like to express our great appreciation of Cosmedent’s generous donation of assorted oral restorative products for our MILES OF SMILES school-based children’s dental program,” said Mark Sobiski, Foundation Director at the CareFIRST Carolina Foundation. “These products wonderfully complement our effort to provide the most comprehensive and highest quality dental care available here in our area.
