ORI_dental_flyer-5Children’s Dental Resources, a subsidiary of Operation Resources Inc., is a 501 C-3 nonprofit organization.  Our mission is to help subsidize low income children in Michigan with their dental caries (tooth decay).  Our focus is on children whose parents have paid for dental insurance, but are unable to afford the co-pay for  the treatment of tooth decay; therefore, relinquishing their benefits to the insurance company.

Did you know that among the many dental conditions affecting children, dental caries is the preeminent concern in the context of Medicaid service because of their substantial prevalence in low income population?  Tooth decay continues to be the single most common chronic disease among Michigan children, despite the fact that it is highly preventable through early and sustained home care and regular professional preventive services.

Data from recent Michigan surveys reaffirm the persistence of dental caries as the single most prevalent chronic disease of childhood. Roughly half of Michigan children experience dental caries by age nine; and the proportion rises to about 80 percent by age 17.The consequences of severe, untreated dental disease and poor oral health in thousands of Michigan children are evident in many dimensions.  Biologically, untreated dental disease can lead to pain, infection and destruction of teeth and surrounding tissues with associated dysfunction.  Untreated tooth decay may lead to delayed overall development among young children affected with severe forms of the disease.

We, as a community can help reach these children with your tax exempt financial donation to our Children’s Dental Resources fund.  Subsidizing children that have unutilized dental insurance will make a drastic impact on their dental health for the rest of their lives.

Our mission is to help our children get excellent dental care today and tomorrow.  Will you give us your support?
