The Mission.

To improve the oral and overall health of the community in Iquitos, Peru by providing free dental work, dental education for children and their parents, and free toothbrush kits to children and their families.

83.6%

Considered the capital of the Peruvian jungle, Iquitos is the largest city in the world not accessible by road, limiting access to dental services. According to a 2014 study [1], 83.6% of children in the Province of Loreto (of which Iquitos is the capital) aged 0-12 do not have access to dental care, the 2nd highest of any province in Peru.
