In the UK, Dentaid provides free dental care for homeless and vulnerable people.
The charity’s mobile dental units visit hostels, day centres and night shelters providing emergency treatment for people who find it difficult to access dental care.
They provide dental care in areas where people are struggling to find a dentist and run clinics for refugees and asylum seekers, head and neck cancer patients, veterans, children in areas of social deprivation and victims of domestic violence.
Dentaid’s BrightBites oral health education programme are also run in schools across the UK.
