Pulpdent has announced it is continuing its support for children's oral health by donating sealants and other materials to the National Children's Oral Health Foundation, an organization that works to provide dental care to economically disadvantaged children. The donation provides enough materials to seal 12,000 teeth, according to the company.
In celebration of its 60th anniversary in 2007, Pulpdent donated 60,000 sealants to public health organizations servicing underserved and underprivileged populations. Pulpdent increased its participation in these programs in 2008 and will continue its strong support of public health initiatives in 2009, the company said.
The donation to the National Children's Oral Health Foundation includes Embrace WetBond pit and fissure sealant, Etch-Rite dental etching gel, Flecta disposable mouth mirrors, informational handouts for parents, posters, and Embracelets, colorful bracelets for children to wear that are printed with the message "embrace oral health."
