Founded 1998

Our mission is to enhance oral health in our community.

Founded in 1998, the DCDS Foundation is the charitable arm of the Dallas County Dental Society. We work alongside dental professionals, volunteers, and community partners to address oral health disparities and deliver meaningful, long-lasting impact throughout Dallas County.

Through targeted outreach and large-scale initiatives, the Foundation supports programs that:

  • Provide free and low-cost dental care to underserved populations

  • Deliver oral health education in schools and community settings

  • Support children, seniors, and vulnerable individuals

  • Unite nonprofits and healthcare partners to improve access to care
