Our Services
| | |
The Mission or the Salt Lake Donated Dental Services (SLDDS) is to relieve pain and suffering and preserve the oral health of patients who are homeless or indigent and who have no other access to dental care and treatment. This includes short-term, emergency treatment which, in some instances can be life threatening. The long-term benefits include improving general health by enabling people to eat properly and more nutritionally; increasing self-esteem by providing the prosthetics which often remove the roadblock to seeking employment, an important step towards self-sufficiency; and the education of the importance of dental health.
