DentaQuest has announced it will endow the Chair of Pediatric Oral Health and Dentistry at Boston Children's Hospital.
With this endowment, DentaQuest builds on its existing partnership with the hospital to develop innovative, evidence-based approaches to eradicate dental disease in children, according to the company.
The inaugural recipient is Man Wai Ng, DDS, MPH, dentist in chief at Boston Children's Hospital Department of Dentistry and an associate professor of developmental biology at the Harvard School of Dental Medicine. Dr. Ng's work includes understanding the causes of dental disease and creating new care models that prioritize education and prevention, particularly for underserved children and their families.
