Centrix Donates FluoroDose to Fiji Dental Foundation

Centrix received some more great news about FluoroDose, our sodium fluoride varnish!

Fiji Dental and Medical Foundation, which serves the Malolo Island chain of Fiji, put our Fluoride Varnish to good use in February of this year. Here is an excerpt from the letter we received:

“We are so grateful for the Centrix donation of fluoride and would like to tell you about our trip and how your donation helped make it possible.

Our foundation is Fiji Dental and Medical Foundation. It is a 501(c)3 that provides dental and medical services to the people living in the Malolo Island chain of Fiji. Our inaugural clinic took place in February of this year. Although we raised funds to support our clinic, we were in need of donated materials and equipment as well. Centrix generously donated Fluoride which allowed us to provide preventative care for over 130 children in the village of Solevu, Fiji. Overall, our team treated 377 patients and provided over 1000 dental and medical procedures.

Our team consisted of 11 volunteers from the U.S:

• 4 dentists
• 3 hygienists
• 4 support volunteers

In addition, we trained local Fijian volunteers to help out.

We could not have done this without the help of donors like Centrix. Our clinic is going to be an annual event and it is our hope that we can count you and other donors to support our effort year after year.”

Centrix makes dentistry easier!
