Urgent Dental Care Needed for Transplant Patients

For transplant patients, dental work can mean the difference between life and death, but many can't afford the care they need.

A healthy mouth is essential, as the leading cause of transplant recipient death is infection. And the number one entry point for infection is the mouth.

Without your donations, many patients in need would simply go without dental care, leaving them ineligible for a transplant.
