About Us

The Important Work We Do

1. For the frail/elderly

• Accessible Care: We've built our Senior Mobile Dental program to provide regular, preventive care directly in nursing homes and assisted living facilities.

• Timely Care: Many seniors receiving transportation to the dental office are left in the waiting room for hours before and after their appointments. We make every effort possible to be courteous of your time and to keep your appointment running on time.

• Transfer: We understand it's difficult and uncomfortable to transfer into a dental chair, so we ensure that the transportation/care facility provides a CNA to be on hand to assist with a wheelchair transfer. FEBRUARY 2020 - a Versatilt was granted to us from The Independent Center to utilize in our Colorado Springs office for individuals who have difficulty or cannot transfer from their wheelchair into the dental chair.

• Dementia or Alzheimer Disease: Dental offices have difficult times handling a person who is not as cooperative as the general public. It is much easier for us to come to you in surroundings that you are familiar with and your professional medical staff available to help and comfort you when needed.

2. Problems that low income, uninsured and Medicaid recipients have

The greatest complaint most consumers have is going to a dental office for help, and walking away with a quote for thousands of dollars worth of needed care. Disheartened and overwhelmed with the cost, many bury their heads and sink further into disease and neglect. We proudly provide much needed individualized care, focused on what is truly needed.

Challenges that our clients experience include:

• Deciding between paying for medication, pay the electric bill, or to get their teeth looked at.

• Removing themselves socially due to embarrassment or painful teeth.

• Inability to gain sufficient nutritional intake because they have no teeth to chew with or they couldn’t chew because of their broken or loose teeth.

• Difficulty finding a job because of their broken, decayed teeth and the odors involved.

3. medications causing uncontrollable decay

We are working with top materials to help manage the rampant decay that is happening. The Surgeon General reported poor oral health for under-served, vulnerable populations is an epidemic in 2007, and still is to this day. Our goal is to manage and ensure no one is in pain or infection. Did you know:

• There are over 500 prescribed medications that affect people’s mouths.

• Often these medications create xerostomia “dry mouth.”

• These medications and the changes in their mouths is the main contributing factor of the increased decay rate, broken teeth and oral disease many adults face.

4. Healthcare reform

Our country is faced with an epidemic that many people do not realize…high priced dental care. Across the country the news reports about our health care system, but it is a system that separates the head from the rest of the body.

• Mental and Dental health have long endured the lack of support and coverage.

• Recent epidemic of suicides, violence and mental health has received increased attention and support while dental health is still waiting for the attention that is crucial for our communities.

Once the policy makers and public realize how much money is lost in healthcare with uncontrolled oral disease affecting people’s overall health, we will see changes. We see a significant amount of money lost in emergency room visits alone. We are continually working for support and attention to the importance oral health plays in our daily lives.
