About Us -
What We Do and How We Operate
The Children's ToothFairy Foundation provides dental funding to
the underserved children
of Wayne, Oakland, and Macomb counties.
We have partnered with the University of Detroit/ Mercy School of
Dentistry and hope to partner with University of Michigan and Children's
Hospital once our budget grows.
Because of the current economic effects on the State of Michigan,
many families can no longer afford any type of dental insurance for
their children. Give Kids a Smile day provides an excellent service for
one day a year. While this is an excellent program, children need dental
care all year around. That’s where Children's ToothFairy Foundation
steps in. We provide dental funding 365 days a year in hopes of
turning these statistics around.
Many dental providers and organizations do not accept Medicaid because
it is not cost efficient. Children's ToothFairy Foundation can provide
funding for care at a University or hospital setting at an agreed fee
slightly above that reimbursed by Medicaid.
This has proven to be a win-win situation. The
university gains a greater patient population base for treatment, the
child receives treatment at no charge, and the family receives a dental
education component as part of the program.
We request that Medicaid be accessed if available and the balance
will be paid thru Children's ToothFairy Foundation funding. |
