At Dr. Dental, we pride ourselves on giving back to the East Coast communities we serve. Our dedicated employees live here too and we are committed to service and paying it forward.

We have a history of community service at Dr. Dental, partnering in the past to send hygiene products to the brother of an employee – and his fellow troops – serving in Afghanistan!

And with summer coming to a close, we figured back-to-school season is the perfect time to help local families who may be struggling. We recently partnered with the United Way of Massachusetts Bay & Merrimack Valley to put together bags of school supplies.

After all, what kid (or kid-at-heart) doesn’t love a box of sharp crayons, fresh notebook paper or crisp folders? It’s the best thing about heading back to the classroom, right?

Volunteers from several of our more than 30 Dr. Dental offices gathered at Kimball Farms in Westford, Mass. to create more than 225 kits for local children through United Way’s partner agencies.

We couldn’t be more proud of our team who dedicated their time to this worthy cause. It’s our hope that we bring some SMILES to the children who receive these bags!

How do you help local organizations during back-to-school season? We want to hear the SMILE-worthy causes you support!

Our family-owned dental offices are proud to bring affordable smiles to all ages at convenient locations in Connecticut, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New Jersey and Rhode Island.
