Foundations play a critical role in addressing the oral health needs of children by helping to define policy problems; identifying possible solutions; building political support through research and policy work; convening; investing in innovative models and the evaluation of them; and education and consensus building efforts.

Oral health is an integral part of overall health. Good oral health is influenced by a number of factors including beliefs, culture, social and economic conditions, and physical environment.  In collaboration with local, state and national partners, the DentaQuest Foundation works to reduce health inequities, highlight prevention, foster civic engagement, and influence systems that promote oral health beyond the clinical setting.
