Piedmont Regional Dental Clinic

Jack arrived at Piedmont Regional Dental Clinic in pain no child should ever have to endure.

At just seven years old, he was exhausted, frightened, and hurting — the result of months without access to care. Jack lives with his grandmother, Marie, who is doing everything she can to raise him on a limited income. By the end of each month, she’s making impossible choices just to keep food on the table. Dental care simply isn’t within reach.

By the time Jack was seen at Piedmont Regional Dental Clinic, the damage was significant — multiple infected teeth, untreated cavities, and constant pain. He wasn’t sleeping. He couldn’t focus in school. Even eating had become difficult. The carefree moments every child deserves were slipping away.

No child should have to live like this.

Here’s the part that’s hard to accept: much of this could have been prevented. A simple $39 fluoride varnish — a quick, routine treatment — can stop decay before it starts.

Today, you have the chance to change that story.

Thanks to a generous match, every gift you make will be doubled — turning $39 into protection for two children instead of one.

It’s a small act with a powerful ripple effect: less pain, better health, stronger confidence, and a child who can simply be a child again.

Give now. Double your impact. Help us stop dental pain before it starts.
