Providing dentistry to far off people in difficult places is challenging because of the considerable equipment needed for field work. Sometimes, the most efficient way to help someone in need is to bring them to us.  The challenge is how to find and screen the most appropriate cases.  We have quietly built a referral network with the volunteers and staff of Saddleback Church.  Our office provides discrete help to the most needy, one smile at a time.

There was a time when we did take the show on the road.  We previously focused on two trips, an annual trip with Loma Linda University to New Mexico, and a quarterly trip to Independencia in Mexico.  Security concerns have put the Mexico trips on indefinite hold.  That doesn't diminish the considerable effort and generosity of our volunteer team all those years.  These articles are maintained as an archive of those past trips.
