Wisconsin Needs More Smiles

More smiles change everything.

 

Wisconsin needs more smiles!

• Almost one-third of Wisconsinites do not regularly visit a dentist

• Emergency department care for dental complaints costs up to $2.1 billion a year nationally

• 1 in 5 children go without dental care

 

We do not accept this as a reality.

 

Since we opened our doors in 2009, More Smiles Wisconsin — formerly Madison Dental Initiative (MDI) — has always been more than just a dental clinic.

​

More Smiles WI is a hybrid non-profit utilizing both volunteers and paid providers to provide dental services to the impoverished population of Dane County. We serve ages 8 and up — children from the Boy’s & Girl’s Club, young adults and single women from The Salvation Army, and the elderly community. We believe in long-term solutions to the access to care problem, thus emphasizing education and prevention to our patients.

​

Our staff and volunteers work to:​

• remove worry from struggling families

• prevent missed work days

• restore confidence to the unemployed

• provide hope to the homeless

• reduce pain for veterans

​

In short, we don’t just provide dental care, we work to change lives.

​

If you need dental care, please call our Patient Care Coordinator: 608-665-2752

 

Help us create a brighter and happier Wisconsin.
