Dental Missions?

[JTC2280]

Hello all! I am a pre-dent student interested in taking part in a dental mission (I have dental assisting experience). I've found a few sites on-line with mission listings (DentalVolunteer.com, etc), but am not sure of which ones are legit. Can any of you recommend a good starting point or some organizations that put such missions together?

Any advice/guidance would be greatly appreciated!

Try the Christian Medical and Dental Association - if you can find a local CMDA dentist he/she will likely know of medical/dental missions. CMDA does mission trips all over and locally too!

Here is a link to volunteer dental work overseas from the ADA website.
