About the Institute
The mission of the DentaQuest Institute is to promote optimal oral health through efficient and effective care and prevention. Unlike most institutes that focus on either scientific research or policy commentary, the DentaQuest Institute emphasizes a hands-on approach by working directly with oral health care professionals to support them in improving the care they provide to their patients.
We believe that the oral health care delivery system is undergoing an important transition from one that focuses mainly on surgical care (filling teeth) to one that uses the latest innovations in science to help patients prevent and manage the underlying disease. It is now within our grasp to help people live cavity-free lives and to prevent the negative consequences oral disease can have on children and adults. Our partnerships with oral health care providers throughout the U.S. are demonstrating that it is possible to improve oral health care, and with dramatic results.
The DentaQuest Institute is part of the DentaQuest family of companies whose mission is to improve oral health through innovative dental benefits, philanthropy, and improvements in oral health care.
