About Bright Smiles

What is Bright Smiles?

Bright Smiles is an innovative new national pilot program that will tackle the dental health problems of children in need. It has two key goals:

  1. To bring together kids in need with volunteer dentists for free dental treatment
  2. To educate the community about the prevention of dental disease.

The program will do this by promoting 4 steps to a lifelong smile -- brushing, flossing, rinsing and regular dental check ups.

Colgate will work with the help of private dental practitioners and Bright Smiles supporters to address the dental health of children whose families have limited access to care.

The program is part of Colgate's Oral Health Month August 2008.
