#TheSmileZone

Driven by a deep sense of purpose, our founder Dora Pesqueda set out on a mission. A mission to ensure that children in under-served communities throughout Arizona receive quality dental care and oral health education that they rightfully deserve. Throughout many years in the field of dentistry, Dora witnessed firsthand the unfortunate reality that many families and communities face each day. Families struggle to provide access to dental care and preventative services such as: dental screenings, cleanings, and oral health education. These unfortunate barriers included families of remote locations, limited access to a dentist, and their background and socioeconomic status. With an unwavering commitment to making a difference, Dora’s goal to bring an effective mobile dental outreach program has finally manifested. Dora's passion has allowed dental and convenience to meet families through comfort and ease of access.

"I am truly grateful to have dedicated partners working alongside me toward a shared vision. Together, we are committed to collaborating to improve oral health, overall well-being, and empowering youth to lead healthier lives. Through our mobile dental services, we provide access to essential care and work to reduce the risk of caries for uninsured and underinsured individuals across multiple counties and communities throughout Arizona. The support we receive from our generous donors and supporters makes this impactful work possible, and we are deeply thankful for your continued partnership.”
