GIVING BACK TO SOCIETY American Dental Association celebrates 20th anniversary of Give Kids A Smile programme The American Dental Association (ADA) celebrates the 20th anniversary of its Give Kids A Smile (GKAS) programme which has provided oral healthcare education and services to more than seven million underserved children in the US, the agency revealed. In 2022, nearly 1,000 GKAS events are scheduled to take place throughout the US, and it is estimated that 300,000 underserved children will receive oral health education and preventive and restorative services, such as cleanings and fillings. These services will be provided by more than 20,000 dental team volunteers, including approximately 5,000 dentists, using supplies from 3,200 kits of essential oral healthcare products donated by Henry Schein, Colgate-Palmolive, and its supplier partners. Henry Schein has served as the professional product sponsor since the programme’s inception. Their support has included donations from its supplier partners, which have contributed to the US$20 million in oral healthcare products made available to the programme, and hours preparing and sending more than 40,000 dental kits. Colgate-Palmolive has served as the sponsor of health and hygiene consumer products since 2007. Their support of GKAS has helped build proper oral care habits and reflects the company’s mission to reimagine a healthier future for all. In addition to supporting GKAS, Colgate-Palmolive promotes health equity and optimal health and well-being among underserved children and their families through its Bright Smiles, Bright Futures initiative. “What began as a grassroots effort has become a national movement to ensure access to quality health care for all children,” said Cesar R. Sabates, president of the ADA. “The success of GKAS would not be possible without the nearly 37,000 dental professionals who volunteer at local events each year, in addition to national sponsors, Henry Schein and Colgate, and long-time supporters like the ADA Foundation. My sincere appreciation and thanks to all of you who have been a part of the programme, some from the very first day. We are all involved for the right reason – to Give Kids A Smile and help children in need.” Supplier partners that are supporting the 2022 Give Kids A Smile programme through product donations also include 3M, Centrix, DASH Medical, Dentsply Sirona, DMG America, Dukal Corporation, Medicom, PacDent, Premier, Richmond, Sempermed USA, Sunstar, TIDI Products, and WaterPik. ■ An honorary OBE for 20 years of Mouth Cancer Foundation service Dr Vinod Joshi, founder of the Mouth Cancer Foundation, has been awarded the Office of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire (OBE) in recognition of services to fighting cancer. His journey began 20 years ago with a mission to save and improve lives and drove the creation of the charity’s first website. Dedicated to raising awareness, educating and promoting the early detection of mouth cancer as well as supporting those affected by it, Dr Joshi set up the Restorative Dentistry Oncology Clinics’ mouth cancer awareness website to complement the work he was doing at the clinics he ran at St Luke’s Hospital, Bradford and Pinderfields Hospital in Wakefield. The forum in the early days created a network of support for head and neck cancer patients going through treatment. The website experienced growth, with the message board facility becoming an online support group. This convinced the National Health Service (NHS) consultant to establish the Mouth Cancer Foundation in June 2004, a not-for-profit organisation with the intention of becoming a registered charity, which happened in May 2005. Dr Joshi said: “My work as an NHS consultant in restorative dentistry included maxillofacial prosthodontics which is the rehabilitation of head and neck cancer patients using prostheses and providing the supportive care needed following their sideeffects from their treatments. “I created a support network for these patients from my hospital work and it evolved into the Mouth Cancer Foundation charity, which provides support for mouth cancer patients, their carers and information for dentists and the public to facilitate early diagnosis of these cancers and save lives. “The charity also organises the annual Mouth Cancer 10km Awareness Walk in Hyde Park, London, the only charity walk for mouth cancer awareness and support, as a memorial for lost loved ones and a tribute to patients and their carers.” The charity continues to grow from strength to strength with patients, carers and survivors at the heart of all activities. A large part of the charity’s remit today is also educating dental and medical professionals on the early detection of head and neck cancers. ■ 78 DENTAL ASIA MARCH / APRIL 2022
