Sharing Smiles
One smile becomes many.
OUR MISSION
Bridging gaps in health care for kids with cleft and dental needs
Sharing Smiles International seeks to make world-class cleft and dental care free and accessible in select countries across Latin America. We envision a world where every child is connected to timely, comprehensive cleft and dental care.
Happening Now
AREAS OF FOCUS
Cleft Care
We've served over +26,000 patients and counting with life-changing surgical procedures, including primary lips, primary palates, primary alveolar bone grafts, and orthognathic procedures. We empower patients and families with knowledge about their conditions and options for care.
Dental Care
Sharing Smiles creates on-site dental clinics to provide children with dental hygiene education, the supplies they need for daily care, biannual professional dental cleanings, sealant application, and any restorative care they need from infancy to adulthood to ensure their healthy smiles last a lifetime. Not only do we give them a healthy smile, we change the way they view oral hygiene and overall wellness.
Sustainability
We work with hospitals and local partners to establish comprehensive cleft care, including speeth therapy, orthdodontics, nutrition, and psycho-social support. We support the exchange of medical knowledge and innnovation to ensure the availability of cleft care beyond the duration of any one campaign.
