Pulpdent is donating the company's Embrace fluoride varnish to the nonprofit group Mil Milagros (A Thousand Miracles).
The group works in rural Guatemala to prevent child malnutrition and improve the health and education of the children and the communities, according to Pulpdent. More than 60 teachers in local public schools are also trained to support the daily toothbrushing programs that are part of the school day.
"Most of the children and families with whom Mil Milagros works in Guatemala have no access to a dentist," stated Margaret Blood, founder and executive director of Mil Milagros, in a press release. "With Pulpent's help, we are improving the children's health and well-being."
