SS WHITE SUPPORTS CHILDREN AND COMMUNITIES IN NEED WITH PRODUCT DONATION TO AMERICA’S TOOTHFAIRY
(Charlotte, NC –December
19, 2017) Non-profit dental clinics around the nation will be better
equipped to provide essential oral care services to children in need thanks to
a generous product donation from SS White made to America’s ToothFairy:
National Children’s Oral Health Foundation (NCOHF).
With a retail value of $24,894, the donation consisted of an assortment of carbide burs. Over
$24,000 in donated carbide burs were distributed to thirteen members of the
America’s ToothFairy Dental Resource Program, a national network of non-profit
clinics providing essential oral health care to underserved children and
families in their communities.
FirstHealth Dental Care, a non-profit dental clinic located
in Southern Pines, NC, was one of the recipient clinics to benefit from SS
White’s generous donation. Since its inception in 1998, FirstHealth Dental Care
has served more than 25,000 children in their community. “On behalf of
FirstHealth Dental Care, I would like to thank SS White for the generous
donation of burs,” said Dena Locklear, Program Manager at FirstHealth Dental.
“These products will impact so many children and aid us in providing dental
care for our patients!”
“SS White is happy to support the National Children’s Oral
Health Foundation and the member clinics of its Dental Resource Program,” said
Tom Gallop, CEO of SS White. “We are proud to provide these non-profit clinics
with the tools they need to better serve children in their communities.”
“We are very grateful to SS White for their generosity and
continued support of children’s oral health,” said Jill Malmgren, NCOHF Executive
