AdventHealth Sharing Smiles Building a Lasting Legacy
Sharing Smiles delivers healing and hope to disadvantaged children in selected countries through quality health care, education and training. We partner with host country health care providers and civic leaders to build a sustainable legacy.
Many Reasons to Smile
We create smiles in three ways: by providing cleft lip and palate treatment, comprehensive dental care and individualized pediatric rehabilitation programs. These lasting legacies ensure that children receive the care they need to live happy, hopeful lives.
How We Help Children
-
Cleft Lip and Palate Treatment
A child born with a cleft lip or palate suffers both physically and emotionally. Sharing Smiles provides free corrective surgery and year-round comprehensive medical care so each child may proudly share their smile with the world.
-
Dentistry
In some communities, children who grow up without dental care don’t have a chance at a healthy smile. We help educate both children and local dentists about proper oral care for a long-term impact. They may be scared of the dentist at first, but they’re all smiles when we return to follow up.
-
Pediatric Rehabilitation
Children with physical deformities and mobility limitations must often live in facilities away from their families. We take an individualized approach to each patient and work with local caregivers to share skills, resources, and techniques so these children can adapt their environment.
