Over Ten Years Of Service
Celebrating over ten years of service and more than $2 million dollars back into the community; Delta Dental of Arizona Foundation is continuing our mission to improve oral health across Arizona for individuals and communities, with particular emphasis on underserved and uninsured populations.

Since 1997, Delta Dental of Arizona Foundation has grown and supported numerous nonprofit organizations addressing the oral health needs of the most vulnerable residents of our state. With the mounting evidence showing the connection of a healthy mouth to a healthy body, the Foundation is committed to preventing dental disease. We do that by working with partners to effectively use resources, knowledge and increase public awareness of oral health issues. We are committed to preventing oral disease by using strategies including:

Establishing and expanding dental sealant programs in schools
Supporting fluoride varnish programs
Creating outreach programs offering education and preventive services
Providing leadership on oral health issues

$2 Million into the Community

In your schools … With support from Delta Dental of Arizona Foundation for toothbrushes, floss and educational materials from Teeth on the Go, students have learned about good dental hygiene practices and more importantly established a regular time after lunch to brush and floss!
In your neighborhood … Every Little Tooth Counts - It really does! Protecting and preserving primary teeth is important for young children.

In Tucson… Celebrating 45 years of service to the Tucson community, St. Elizabeth of Hungary Clinic has provided dental care since 1961.
Back to School… For one week, every year for the past 40, the Annual Back-to-School Clothing Drive, aided by more than one thousand volunteers helps thousands of students from low-income families prepare for a new school year.
