GC America, Alsip, Ill, announced it will become an underwriting partner of America’s ToothFairy: National Children’s Oral Health Foundation. The company’s support will be used to expand delivery of oral health educational, preventative, and treatment services for at-risk children and youth across the country.
The partnership will kick off with a special promotion for dental hygienists attending RDH Under One Roof in Maryland from July 28 to 30, 2016. Dental hygienists who commit to become a member of the America’s ToothFairy Esther Wilkins Education Program will receive special incentives from GC America.
Established with a founding gift from dentist and dental hygienist Esther Wilkins, RDH, DMD, the Esther Wilkins Education Program supports the role of dental hygienists and dental hygiene students as oral health champions by providing educational tools for their community outreach activities.
